A one-piece fold-and-glue container having corners reinforced by extensions (33) that fold over and compress self-erecting gusset corner joints (40), and cutouts (25) in each of the four front, back, and end walls is disclosed. The end walls have outer end wall panels (26) integrally extending from the bottom and joined adjacent to the front or back to extensions (33) each having a protruding tab (39) at a free end for locking into the bottom when each extension (33) is folded over a corresponding gusset joint (40). Adjacent to the junctions between the extensions (33) and the outer end walls (26), a registration tab (35) is cut in each extension (33) to register with a corresponding opening (64) in the bottom of another container stacked on the container. The extensions (33) can have two or more thicknesses of material folded laterally inward and glued against one another for added reinforcement.
