Claim:
A combination shipping container and dispenser, comprising: a top; a bottom opposite the top; two end walls, each end wall being located between the top and the bottom; two sides, each being located between the top and the bottom and adjacent to each of the end walls; a first perforation formed in the top and extending to each of the sides and extending between a first point and a second point; a first line of weakness extending between the first point and the second point of the first perforation, the first perforation and the first line of weakness defining a first opening in the combination shipping container and dispenser and a first hinged door for covering the first opening; a second perforation formed in one of the end walls and extending to each of the sides and extending between a first point and a second point; a second line of weakness extending between the first point and the second point of the second perforation, the second perforation and the second line of weakness defining a second opening in the combination shipping container and dispenser and a second hinged door for covering the second opening; a third perforation extending from the first point of the first perforation generally perpendicular thereto and a fourth perforation extending from the second point of the first perforation generally perpendicular thereto and a third line of weakness generally parallel to the first line of weakness and extending between the third perforation and the fourth perforation, wherein a section of the top disposed between the first line of weakness and the third line of weakness defines a first hinged door portion coextensive with the first hinged door such that the first opening defined by pivotally opening the first hinged door about the first line of weakness is enlarged by pivotally opening the first hinged door portion about the third line of weakness; and a fifth perforation extending from the first point of the second perforation generally perpendicular thereto and a sixth perforation extending from the second point of the second perforation generally perpendicular thereto and a fourth line of weakness generally parallel to the second line of weakness and extending between the fifth perforation and the sixth perforation, wherein a section of the respective end wall disposed between the second line of weakness and the fourth line of weakness defines a second hinged door portion coextensive with the second hinged door such that the second opening defined by pivotally opening the second hinged door about the second line of weakness is enlarged by pivotally opening the second hinged door portion about the fourth line of weakness.
