Claim:
A triangular dispenser comprising: a base, a cover, and an insert; the base having a bottom wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a third side wall, each side wall having an upper edge; the first side wall having an aperture; an apex formed opposite the aperture by the convergence of the second side wall and the third side wall; wherein a portion of the upper edge of the second side wall and a portion of the upper edge of the third side wall are angled, such that the resulting upper edge at the convergence of the second and third side walls is lower than the upper edges of the first, second, and third base side walls; the cover having an upper wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a third side wall, each side wall having a lower edge; an apex formed by the convergence of the second side wall and the third side wall; wherein a portion of the lower edge of the second side wall and a portion of the lower edge of the third side wall are angled, such that the resulting lower edge at the convergence of the second and third side walls is higher than the upper edges of the first, second, and third cover side walls; the insert having an upper wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a third side wall, each side wall having an upper edge; the first side wall of the insert having an aperture which corresponds with at least some portion of the aperture in the first side wall of the base when the insert is placed within the base; an apex formed opposite the aperture by the convergence of the second side wall and the third side wall; wherein a portion of the upper edge of the second side wall and a portion of the upper edge of the third side wall are angled, such that the resulting upper edge at the convergence of the second and third side walls is lower than the upper edges of the first, second, and third insert side walls; and upon assembly of the cover, base, and insert, a portion of the base wall is exposed, such that placement of downward pressure on the cover upper wall, opposite the aperture, elevates the first side wall of the cover, revealing some portion of the aperture in the base side wall, thereby permitting the dispensing of at least some of the contents of the dispenser.
