Abstract: A dispenser apparatus for use to dispense a material from a squeezable and collapsible tube is provided. The dispenser apparatus comprises a housing unit having a storage portion at the top end, a dispensing portion at the bottom end, and at least one channel which extends vertically from the top end to the bottom end. The dispenser also includes a feeder plate which is downwardly sloping from the storage portion to the dispensing portion, and a dispensing member above the feeder plate. When the dispensing member is in an open position, passage of one tube from the storage portion to the dispensing portion is permitted, and when the dispensing member is in a closed portion, passage of any tube into the dispensing portion is precluded. When in the dispensing portion, material can be dispensed from the tube, and thus converted the full tube to a collapsed, empty shape. Only when the tube has taken on the collapsed empty shape, is the tube removable from the dispensing portion. A device for reducing theft or other loss of the incompletely used tubes results.
