Each box-shaped unit, includes a plurality of walls having a front panel, a rear panel spaced away from the front panel, a pair of opposed side panels spaced away from each other and connecting the front and the rear panels. At least one panel of each box unit, other than the auxiliary box unit, has an unflanged top edge. Each box-shaped unit, includes at least one panel having a generally candy-cane or semicircular shaped top flange for removably engaging the unflanged top edge of a panel of another box unit.
