Abstract
This disclosure pertains to a flexible rubber-like mat having a plurality of suction cups affixed to one lateral surface thereof. The other lateral surface is substantially covered with a loose pile fabric-like material adapted to be releasingly engaged by one surface of a flexible soap containing apparatus. The plastic gripping surface of the flexible soap container is adapted with a multiplicity of multi-directional material grasping fingers. The remainder of the container is fabricated from porous sponge-like material enabling the soap within to be fluidly communicated with the exterior porous surfaces of the container. The mat may be installed on a wall or on the interior surfaces of a bathtub providing a convenient storage location for the soap container and utility as a washing aid.
