ABSTRACT:
A package for multiple articles such as trigger sprayers. The articles are placed adjacent each other and secured against an upright backing member. The backing member has an aperture formed by cutting and folding a flap of the backing member material. The aperture serves as a finger hole for carrying the package while the flap serves as a spacer for separating the adjacent articles. In one embodiment a shrinkband is wrapped around the articles and the backing member to secure the articles to the backing member with the uppermost edge of the shrinkband remaining below the finger hole. In an alternative embodiment a shrinkwrap encases the articles and backing member to secure the articles to the backing member. An access hole may be cut in the shrinkwrap around the finger hole in the backing member if use of the finger hole for handling the package is desired.
