Abstract
A container includes a slidable tray and a locking sleeve. The tray is a conventional blister package, with blisters formed therein. The tray includes a slot and the sleeve includes a stop that extends through the slot to prevent the tray from sliding out of the sleeve. The sleeve includes detents that engage with holes in the tray to lock the tray in multiple positions. Manipulating a biaser releases the detents from the holes, thereby allowing the tray to slide within the sleeve.
