A flexible cap adapted to enclose a tube having an open end and used for storing items consists of an enclosure having an opening at one end, a closed end, and side walls and enclosing a space. A pair of aligned apertures through the side walls form with the space a bore through the enclosure transverse to the axis of the enclosure between the opening and the closed end. The opening is adapted to engage the open end of the tube. To dispense an item, the cap is bent by lateral flexion so as to align one of the apertures with the open end of the tube and the tube is inverted so that an item falls out under the influence of gravity. The amount of lateral flexion controls the alignment of the aperture with the open end so as to permit only one item at a time to fall out.
