A container includes a receptacle portion and a lid, butt ends thereof being hingeably connected one to the other; one or more resiliently mounted teeth are formed which extend upwardly from a forward end of the receptacle portion, and which include a body portion with a recess extending therethrough; a plurality of laterally spaced apart protrusions are provided and extend inwardly from a forward end of the lid, such that on the lid being hinged over the receptacle portion, the protrusions contact and move over the resiliently mounted teeth, so as to releasably engage within the recesses and so as to releasably lock the receptacle portion and lid together. Recesses are provided and extend through an upper surface of the lid, adjacent a front face thereof, so as to allow for the insertion of a release mechanism therethrough and between said one or more teeth and a forward end of said lid, so as to allow for disengagement between said one or more teeth and said one or more protrusions and subsequent release of said lid from said receptacle portion.
