Abstract
Sealed package that includes a formed plastic container, a shaving cartridge (or other stored unit) in a storage region in the container, and a removable cover that covers and is seated to a rim surface around an entrance to the storage region. Side walls of the container have retaining structure that protrudes inward and retains the shaving cartridge (or other stored unit). The container has a lip adjacent to and extending from a side wall of the container at an entrance to the storage region to space a user's finger or thumb from the entrance during removal of the cartridge. The removable cover has deadfold characteristics which facilitate removal of the cartridge when the cover is still partially connected at the rear of the container. A plastic tab is attached to a portion of the cover extending beyond the rim surface of the container to initiate removal of the cover from the rim surface. The plastic tab is spaced from the formed plastic container by a gap.
