Abstract
A container includes a front wall, a back wall, first and second opposing sidewalls, a foldable top, and a bottom. An interior for storing consumer goods is defined between the front wall, the back wall, the first and second side walls, the top and the bottom. Each side wall has three or more fold lines, which form two or more indents extending along the side wall from the bottom to the top. The fold lines of the first side wall are aligned with the fold lines of the second side wall. The container is expandable and collapsible such that the distance between the front wall and the back wall increases as the container is expanded and decreases as the container is collapsed. The top forms a fin when the top is unfolded.
