A package comprises a plurality of flanged articles (10) arranged in a two-tiered group wherein the articles (10) in the upper tier are positioned in top-to-top contacting relation with the articles (10) in the lower tier. Each article (10) has a tubular side wall (80) with a peripheral flange (82) at its top end. The articles (10) are arranged such that the axes of the articles (10) in each tier are disposed vertically and parallel to each other. The group of articles (10) is covered by a sleeve-like carton (12) which includes top (14) and bottom (20 and 22) panels interconnected by a pair of side panels (16 and 18) and an article retainer (36, 38, 40, and 42) for engagement with both the flanges (82) of a pair of the vertically aligned articles (10) located at one of the open ends of the carton. The top panel (14) overlies the bottoms of the articles (10) in the upper tier whereas the bottom panel (20 and 22) underlies the bottoms of the articles (10) in the lower tier.
