A carrier designed to hold and secure a plurality of items with one or more handles, straps, loops or the like. The carrier has an elongate body with a pair of opposing ends, a pair of opposing sides, a top surface and a downward facing bottom surface, which preferably includes a series of indentations designed to accommodate fingers of a hand wrapped around the carrier. Each end of the carrier has a notch that extends below the downward facing bottom surface of the body, providing area in which to secure handles and the like while preventing the carrier from rotating in the hand grasping it. A horizontal cavity extends inwardly from each of the notches and an operating shaft with an integral closure pin is slidably engaged within each of the cavities. A biasing member is also included in each of the cavities to keep the respective closure pins normally in a first, extended position over the notch, thus preventing items from being removed or replaced. A finger controlled actuation member allows the operating shaft to compress the biasing member and move the closure pin into a second, retracted position within the cavity, thus allowing free access to the notch.

A bag carrier comprising: a rigid, elongate, horizontally oriented, body defining first and second opposing ends, a pair of opposing side surfaces, a top surface, and a downward facing bottom surface; each of the ends including a notch defining an upfacing notch base surface positioned below the bottom surface and opposing notch outer, and inner side surfaces; each of the ends further including a horizontally oriented cavity interconnected with the respective notch inner side surface; the carrier further including, within each said cavity, an operating shaft engaged and functionally slidable therein; each operating shaft including a closure pin extending from the respective shaft to the respective notch outer side surface, and in a first extended position of the operating shaft, penetrating same, so as to close the respective notch; while with the operating shaft manually placed in a second, retracted position, the closure pin is retracted into the respective cavity, thereby opening the notch for acceptance of a bag strap.
