An improved receptacle includes a cover which is connected with a rear panel of the receptacle along a fold line to enable the cover to be pivoted between open and closed positions. Prior to opening of the receptacle, a front section of the cover is firmly held in juxtaposition with a front panel of the receptacle so that the cover cannot be partially raised under the influence of forces applied to the receptacle during handling. When the cover is firmly pulled open, a rip out section is torn from the front panel to form an opening which extends downwardly from an upper edge of the front panel. The rip out section is secured to the inside of the front section of the cover by adhesive. When the cover is closed, indentations formed in the rip out section are engaged by projections formed in the opening in the front panel to hold the cover closed. In certain embodiments, a pair of retaining surfaces are connected with the inside of the cover and are engaged by retaining tabs which are pivotally connected with an upper edge of the front panel to further hold the cover closed.
