Dispensing container

A dispensing container for storing a stack of relatively flexible objects and for individually dispensing a lowermost object of said stack to an intended user, each of said objects defining a object first main edge, a generally opposed object second main edge and an object grasping edge, said object first and second main edges defining an object main edge distance therebetween, each of said objects defining a corresponding object main geometrical plane intercepting said object first and said object second main edges, said dispensing container comprising:

• a storage section for storing said objects in a stacked relationship to each other, said storage section defining a storage section dispensing end, a generally opposed storage section inlet end and a storage section axis extending between said storage section dispensing end and inlet ends, said storage section dispensing end defining a dispensing port;
• said storage section including a first storage wall and a generally opposed second storage wall each extending substantially from said storage section dispensing end to said storage section inlet end;
• said first and second storage walls respectively defining a first storage wall inner surface and a generally opposed second storage wall inner surface;
• a releasable retaining means mounted within said storage section adjacent said storage section dispensing end for releasably retaining said objects within said storage section, said releasable retaining means being configured and sized for releasably supporting said object first and second main edges of at least said lowermost object while leaving said grasping edge of at least said lowermost object unsupported and accessible for grasping through said dispensing port;
• said releasable retaining means being further configured and sized for allowing said lowermost object to be deformed when grabbed by the intended user so that said object first and second main edges of said lowermost object are allowed to clear said retaining means and said lowermost object is dispensed through said dispensing port.
