Abstract
A contoured carton has arcuate corners and includes a dispenser for dispensing articles. The carton is formed by a top wall, bottom wall, two side walls, and two end walls and includes tear lines in at least one end wall for forming the dispenser. The tear lines preferably extend into the side walls and include a finger hole to facilitate opening of the dispenser. The dispenser opening is bound by a lower retaining tab comprised from an upper portion of the arcuate corner to retain the articles in the carton until a user removes an exposed article.
