Abstract

The bag is generally rectangular in configuration and provided with carrying handles on opposite sides thereof with the peripheral wall of the bag being transparent to enable observation of the cans disposed therein with the interior of the bag being divided into a plurality of vertical compartments by a plurality of pivotally connected dividers with the bottom of the bag including a rigid insert to provide a flat bottom to provide a stable unit when in extended condition. While the carrier is especially constructed for use with beverage cans, it can also be used with returnable bottles.
