 >>It is only necessary for a few days; once the baby is nursing every few
hours, the nipple stays out by
itself.  (I think it also satisfies the staff's urge to tell mothers to use
all  sorts of gadgets to do things that should be "natural") Which is why I
suggest just a hand pump.  They're cheap.<<

An even cheaper alternative is the inverted syringe used for inverted
nipples. I love this for those flat nipples, too, and the cost is only a
dollar or so!
