ABSTRACT:
A container for storing an article includes a base, a top, at least one upright, and an elastically deformable member. The top has an opening sized to permit an article to pass through the opening. The at least one upright extends between the base and the top. The elastically deformable member is shift able between a substantially undeformed position and a deformed position. The base, the top, the upright, and the elastically deformable member cooperate to form a storage cavity sized to store the article. The elastically deformable member and at least one of the uprights cooperate to form a gap sized to prevent passage of the article through the gap when the elastically deformable member is in the substantially undeformed position, and the size of the gap is expandable in response to deflection of the elastically deformable member to the deformed position to permit the article to pass through the gap.
