Thanks for the reply Rick.
Printing the entry forms is the easiest part of the raffle draws... I
have a standard template that has three slips per page and I just
print as required and slice the sheets.
I'm looking for ways of making the actual 'Drawing of Numbers/Winners'
a little more exciting visually... and also ways to improve the
efficiency of recording winners details.
But your suggestions on how to work with a printing company to get a
better price are worth people paying attention too if they need actual
business cards or promo flyers :)

I think you are working to hard. Get a copy of Avery Labels design
software (it is free) and design a set of business cards. You can
add a logo (one color would be best) and put what ever text and
lines for what ever you need to write in. If you need lots of these
tickets print out one group of 10 and take it to a print shop that
does offset printing. Have them put the tickets on what ever card
stock they may have open and what ever ink the press is running. Let
them dry over night and have them cut them. The difference in
printing 1000 and 4000 is just ink and paper cost. Go for the gusto,
get as many as you expect to use in a year. There is no need to get
fancy. No stamped number required. You only need one side. Talk to
the people at the print shop. It is not unusual that they run
business card on special, one day a week or two. They will look nice
and be very functional. You should be able to get 1000 for less than
$10 and 3000 for less than $20. You are giving the printer lots of
options (card stock, color ink, time to stick it on the schedule.
That should get your group kudos from the printer. If you have
security concerns, put a stamp on the back. All you need is a pencil
with a rubber eraser. With a raiser blade, cut a small piece out of
the top so you can identify it as yours and smash it into an ink pad
with your choice of color ink and imprint the back.
If you add the print shop's address or URL on each card, they may
give you an additional discount. Talk to them first.
