Abstract:
A gift package comprising:A. a cylindrical container formed of flexible synthetic plastic material for accommodating a gift, said container being formed of transparent plastic material to expose the gift housed therein, said container having an open mouth provided with a rolled rim defining an annular bead; andB. a cap having a circular flange, below which is a cylindrical stopper section that is pressable into the mouth of the container, said cylindrical section having formed thereon a circumferential array of vertical ledges whose upper ends are equi-spaced from the flange to define between the flange and the upper ends of the ledges a circular socket dimensioned to accommodate the annular bead of the container whereby when the cap is applied to the container and the stopper section is pressed into the mouth thereof, this causes the annular bead to snap into the socket to latch the cap, said vertical ledges having a downwardly-sloped contoured surface to cause the ledges to slide into the mouth of the container when the stopper section of the cap is pressed into the mouth.
