A flexible, collapsible container defining a relatively rigid shoulder and neck portion at one end and a relatively rigid base at the other end, and having a flexible tubular wall between the shoulder and the base, utilizes first and second pairs of oppositely-disposed gusset portions defined in the flexible walls and positioned respectively adjacent the shoulder and the base. The gussets are adapted to fold outwardly from the shoulder and base as the container collapses.
