A plastic bottle case for holding two rows of bottles has two inner walls which extend between opposite ends of the case and slope upwardly and inwardly at an acute angle to one another. Lower edges of the inner walls are spaced inwardly from the respective sides of the case a distance less than the diameter of bottles to be received in the case. Openings having horizontal projections conforming to the cross sectional shape of the bottles are provided in the inner walls to receive the bottles so as to hold them erect and keep them from bumping one another. The bottles are supported by ledges at the bottoms of the openings in the inner walls, the bottom of the case being otherwise open. This construction permits a saving in weight and hence in the amount of plastic material required for the bottle case. A further saving of material is achieved by making the sides and ends of the case of vertically spaced horizontal bands extending between angular columns at the corners of the case.
