Abstract: A portable soap container comprises a dish portion with a hinged fastenable lid. On one side wall of the dish portion is mounted three suction cups which allow the side wall to be fastened to a vertical wall for example of a shower. A bracket member is pivotally mounted on the underside of the container and moveable from a stored position in which it lies alongside the undersurface of the container to an operating position in which it depends downwardly from the undersurface to define a contact portion which engages the wall beneath the suction cups to prevent the weight of the container twisting the suction cups off the wall.
