As stated above; and while it's not particularly hard to do-- just time consuming-- be aware that you can purchase them blanched if you want to.

Nutcakes is right on. Depends on how many you need. Cheapest is to buy bulk.

The easiest way is to soak your almonds in water for a couple of hours to overnight and then just slip off the skins with your fingers - they kind of pop off.
