An attachment for a flexible package is disclosed to enable the user to fasten a re-closable package. A bifurcated adhesive member is secured to the body portion of the package at a distance from the opening thereof. The member has a jaw-like construction with hingeline about which one of the jaws may pivot. When the jaws are opened by the user, the re-closed, folded end of the package may be inserted therebetween, and the jaws subsequently closed to retain the package in re-closed condition. It is particularly useful for flexible packages of corn flakes, potato chips, cheese, etc., where portions of the contents are removed over a period of time, gradually decreasing the volume of the contents and forming a sequentially smaller package which should be re-sealed to preserve the freshness of the contents.

The combination of a flexible package comprising a flaccid material capable of being folded and an adhesive closure having a pair of jaws, said package being a soft-sided, bag-like product having a mouth at one end and capable of being refolded to close and re-seal said package; said adhesive closure disposed on the side of said container with said jaws disposed relative to the folded mouth of the container so that the combination permits a substantial amount of packaged content to be removed and, nevertheless, reseal the container when the closed and re-folded open end of the package is disposed within and held by the jaws of the closure, and wherein said adhesive closure is a pressuresensitive item comprising a first member and a second member, said first member adapted for permanent securement to said container by an aggressive adhesive; said second member having a fixed portion and a movable portion secured thereto along a hinge-line; said fixed portion permanently secured to a portion of the first member by an aggressive adhesive; said movable portion having a less aggressive adhesive thereon for removable adhesion, both to the opposed portion of the first member and also to the surface of said container; the less aggressive adhesive surface of the movable portion of said second member permitting repeated securement to and removal from a portion of the surface of said container; and said movable portion and the opposed portion of said first member creating said pair of jaws to receive a portion of the container therebetween.
