What's everyone using as a lift/stand?

I've got a bucket right now, but I see some foot lifts on ebay for about $45 shipped. What are ya'll using as lifts or stands for your Chinese bikes?

A set of jackstands under the foot pegs. They work well, plus I can use them when working on the car (they make good wheel truing stands too.). The bike is light enough, so I just lift it up and slide one stand at a time under it with my foot.

I am using a milk crate with two pieces of 1 inch wood and a couple of bricks.
