Abstract

A carton for dispensing and retaining articles such as cans or bottles is opened by removing a first detachable portion (142) and then by at least partially detaching a second detachable portion (T) to define an opening for dispensing the articles, and to define means for retaining articles in the carton after one or both of the detachable portions have been removed. Removal of the first detachable portion provides access to the second detachable portion to facilitate at least partial detachment thereof. The second detachable portion may be yieldable so as to variably and reversibly redefine or reconfigure the opening to facilitate removal of articles that are being dispensed, and to retain articles in the carton that are not being dispensed.
The first detachable portion includes a tab or other grasping means to aid in tear initiation.
