Abstract

A carton for housing sheets, particularly dryer sheets. The dryer sheets are preferably stacked in a "U" shape and are removed via an access flap which may include 2 hinges and may be recloseable. The carton of the invention includes lines of weakness defining the recloseable access flap in top and front panels. Portions of the front panel lateral to the access flap are attached to an underlying panel or flap, so that when the access flap is separated from the front panel to open the carton, the lateral portions remain attached to the underlying flap or panel.
