Solid deodorant dispensing package

A solid deodorant dispensing package that includes a container, a solid deodorant holding cup which is movable in a cavity in the container between a dispensing position in which a portion of the solid deodorant extends through an opening in the periphery of the container and a storage position in which such portion of the solid deodorant is entirely contained within the container, and an elongate flexible closure which is movable within tracks in the container between a closed position in which a portion of the elongate flexible closure closes the opening in the periphery of the container and an opened position in which the elongate flexible closure does not close the opening, an end of the elongate closure being attached to the solid deodorant holding cup so that the movement of the elongate flexible closure from the closed position to the opened position moves the holding cup from the storage position to the dispensing position, and vice versa. The container is made up of a pair of molded plastic mirror image members, each of which is partially surrounded by a flange, the pair of members being joined to one another by heat sealing with the edges of the flanges of the members lying in edge-to-edge relationship with one another. The holding cup and the elongate flexible closure are integrally formed in a single molded plastic combined member.
