My personal choice, at the tinkering stage, would be to use a plain old 2N7000 MOSFET to drive each relay (with flywheel diode, of course).
Multiple device drivers are handy and certainly have their place, but they also have some inherent limitations, one of which is the total power dissipation available in the DIP package. For example, see the thermal curves for the ULN2004.
