    Abstract: Disclosed are telescoping containers, also referred to as sliding drawer containers, for storing and dispensing tissue products comprising an outer sleeve and an inner carton. The container components cooperate with one another in a sliding arrangement to provide a container that may be easily opened and closed. In a closed configuration the container contents are protected and may be placed in a pocket, glove compartment, purse or handbag, without concern for infiltration by dirt or debris. The container may be provided with a catch mechanism to prevent the carton components from being separated in normal use.
