Emulating a switch with open drain outputs
Since you'll be driving the switches with an MCU, the 2003's inversion won't matter, so it looks to me:

                 Vce   Vcc    IC           $/pkg   $/dev
                  V     V     mA   n/pkg   DKEY1   DKEY1
              |------|-----|-----|-------|-------|-------|      
     ULN2003     50     0    500     7     0.59    0.084
     74LVC07     6.5   6.5    50     6     0.45    0.075 


like the extra penny per device for the 2003 is well worth its extra robustness and versatility. 

Here are the data sheets for the ULN2003 and for the 74LVC07.
