Tickets great for my event!

They were very easy to use once I got the roll started. Too bad I had to waste a ring of them to get the set started. Easy to tear and hardy enough for people to hold on to for a while.
The discounted price for this double roll is nice saving a couple of dollars from the purchase of two single rolls. About every 3rd batch of these tickets has almost unusable printing quality (alignment and darkness) issues which are not a good thing for drawings which is the only reason to use double tickets. It should also be noted that the ticket numbering is FAR from sequential in the two rolls. In the stores you may be able to find two sets of double rolls that offer close numbering but that doubles the quantity you have to purchase. From batch to batch the quality of the perforations varies greatly. Some tear in a very appropriate manner (not too tough not to easy) but others have been practically unusable tearing away part of the numbering because the tickets didn't separate along the line. This is made just that much worse by the 'recycled' nature of the ticket's material causing ragged tearing. I would be willing to pay more for a non recycled product that was clearly printed and had good perforations if Staples offered such a product.
We use these tickets for raffles and admission to events. The printing is easily legible and does not fade / wear off. The perforations make it easy to tear without ripping tickets. Quantity of 1000 is perfect for many events. Use a rubberband around the spool for easy storage.
