Does your team use paint or stick-on numbers?

If you use stick-on numbers, are they sticky or iron on?

Also, where do you buy your numbers?

Find a local graphics business that can cut vinyl and heat press for you or even look into embroidery (think custom t-shirt shop). Vinyl will be cheap, and that is how we do ours. My classroom has all the equipment so we usually only spend about $4 and an hour of labor. Our material runs about $1.25 per foot and is 15 inches wide.

I would expect that you get get the service donated and pay material cost and be around the same. I would guess less than $30 to pay for a cut and press of eight sets of numbers.
