A dispenser is formed of a flexible plastic pouch which has a removable flap providing an opening adjacent the bottom of the pouch, and a transversely disposed thermoplastic band adjacent the flap opening for reinforcing the pouch at the opening. A plurality of stacked reclosable ended, opened, separate plastic bags are disposed in a folded stack within the pouch. The folded plastic bags abut the reinforcing band adjacent the bottom of the pouch. A portion of one outermost plastic bag reclosable end is disposed in the pouch opening, so that the user by the thumb and then the forefinger pulls the one plastic bag end portion causing the one plastic bag to slide over the adjacent plastic bag and through the opening without tearing the pouch. After removal of the one bag, the next adjacent bag is then similarly positioned for removal. The removed plastic bag is immediately ready for filling. The dispenser of the present invention avoids undue manipulation to remove and eliminates the need to open the bag. Suitable uses include dispensing cigar bags and deli bags.

Dispenser for plastic bags

A dispenser is formed of a flexible plastic pouch which has a removable flap providing an opening adjacent the bottom of the pouch, and a mounting element adhesively attached adjacent the top of the pouch which provides selective mounting to diverse surfaces. The mounting element has opposed interengaged Velcro pads whereby when the pouch is adhesively mounted to a surface, the Velcro pads may be disengaged and the pouch removed and replaced with another pouch. A plurality of stacked reclosable ended separate plastic bags are disposed in a folded stack within the pouch. A portion of one outermost plastic bag is disposed in the bottom pouch opening so that the user by the thumb and forefinger pulls the one plastic bag portion causing the one plastic bag to frictionally engage and slide over the adjacent plastic bag and through the opening without tearing the pouch or dismounting the mounting element from the surface mount. After removal of one bag, the next immediately adjacent bag is then similarly positioned for removal. The removed plastic bag is immediately ready for filling. With removal of all the bags, the depleted pouch is detached and replaced with a full pouch by the Velcro pads engagement.

A dispenser is formed of a flexible plastic pouch which has a removable flap providing an opening adjacent the bottom of the pouch, and a mounting or retaining element adjacent the top of the pouch. A plurality of stacked reclosable ended, opened, separate plastic bags are disposed in a folded stack within the pouch. The plastic bags are disposed adjacent the bottom of the pouch with the pouch mounted or retained. A portion of one outermost plastic bag reclosable end is disposed in the pouch opening, so that the user by the thumb and then the forefinger pulls the one plastic bag end portion causing the one plastic bag to slide over the adjacent plastic bag and through the opening. After removal of the one bag, the next adjacent bag is then similarly positioned for removal. The removed plastic bag is immediately ready for filling. The dispenser is particularly useful for dispensing reclosable plastic deli bags where the user's fingers are greasy. The dispenser of the present invention avoids undue manipulation to remove and eliminates the need to open the zippered plastic deli bag.
