A method of filling an upright facial tissue carton with tissues and a support member to facilitate individual dispensing of said tissues, said upright facial tissue carton having a top wall, four sidewalls and a bottom wall, and said top wall having an aperture formed therein, said method comprising the steps of:

• a) positioning a support member in a predetermined location;
• b) assembling a plurality of tissues on said support member to form a combination clip of tissues and support member, said combination having a first surface;
• c) folding said combination to obtain an inverted U-shaped configuration;
• d) opening said carton and inserting said inverted U-shaped configuration, said first surface being positioned adjacent to said aperture;
• and
• e) closing said carton to form a filled upright facial tissue carton.

A method of filling an upright facial tissue carton with tissues and a support member to facilitate individual dispensing of said tissues, said upright facial tissue carton having a top wall, four sidewalls and a bottom wall, and said top wall having an aperture formed therein, said method comprising the steps of:

• a) assembling a plurality of tissues into a clip of interfolded tissue having a first surface and a second surface;
• b) placing a support member adjacent to said second surface;
• c) folding both said clip of interfolded tissues and said support member to obtain an inverted U-shaped configuration;
• d) opening one of said sidewalls of said carton which is aligned parallel to said longitudinal axis of said aperture and inserting said inverted U-shaped configuration, said first surface of said clip of interfolded tissues being positioned adjacent to said aperture;
• and
• e) closing and sealing said sidewall to form a filled upright facial tissue carton.
