Well, do you have a camera ? Because there's a website that holds many many designs for a potentially sub $20 scanner (if you have at least a 6-8 MP camera):

http://www.diybookscanner.org

Also, you could either run it through ScanTailor and produce black and white (not grayscale, grayscale takes up a lot more space), which would be the fast way, or you could run it through ABBY FineReader and proofread them, style them, etc., and go for quality instead.
