A receptacle that is foldable between its open mode for receiving material and a secured mode where its top is double folded and secured with fasteners for maintaining material within the receptacle, or the receptacle is foldable between its open mode and a storage mode when the receptacle is folded to align releasable fasteners and to create a pass-through pocket for receiving accessories. In the storage mode, the receptacle can easily be carried in a pocket or purse until needed to receive undesirable material for disposal. The receptacle can be unfolded from the storage mode to the open mode to receive material.

The invention claimed is: 1. A foldable receptacle having an open mode for receiving material, a secured mode for maintaining material within the receptacle, and a folded storage mode, comprising: a first side, a second side, a bottom having a width and a depth, and a closeable open top; a first fastener location on the first side adjacent the open top; a second fastener location on or proximate the second side for aligning with the first fastener location for fastening engagement; a third fastener location on or proximate the first side and spaced from the bottom a distance approximating the depth of the bottom for aligning with the first fastener location for fastening engagement; the receptacle being in the open mode when the first fastener location is not in fastening engagement with either the second fastener location or the third fastener location; the receptacle being in the secured mode when the first fastener location is in fastening engagement with the second fastener location and the open top is closed; the receptacle being in the storage mode when the receptacle is folded such that the bottom is disposed between a portion of the first side and another portion of the first side and the first fastener location is in fastening engagement with the third fastener location. 2. The receptacle of claim 1, wherein a pass-through pocket is formed in the vicinity of the bottom when the receptacle is in the folded storage mode. 3. The receptacle of claim 2, further comprising an accessory sized for disposition within said pass-through pocket. 4. The receptacle of claim 1, further comprising a fourth fastener disposed on the first side for assisting in closing the open top. 5. The receptacle of claim 1, further comprising an anchor member for attachment to a surface, said anchor member having a fifth fastener for aligning with the first fastener location for fastening engagement such that the receptacle is suspendable from the surface. 6. The receptacle of claim 1, further comprising an anchor member for attachment to a surface, said anchor member having a fifth fastener for aligning with the second fastener location in fastening engagement such that the receptacle is suspendable from the surface. 7. The receptacle of claim 1, wherein the fastening engagement of the first fastener location to the third fastener location is a releasable and reusable engagement. 8. The receptacle of claim 1, wherein the fastening engagement of the first fastener location to the second fastener location is a releasable and reusable engagement. 9. The receptacle of claim 1, further comprising an indicia area positioned on the first side such that the indicia area is visible when the receptacle is in the folded storage mode. 10. The receptacle of claim 2, wherein the receptacle is disposed within a package while in the folded storage mode. 11. The receptacle of claim 10, wherein a fragrance is disposed within the package. 12. The receptacle of claim 1, wherein the first fastener location comprises a part of a two-part fastener that fastens in mating engagement and the second fastener location comprises a mating part of the two-part fastener. 13. The receptacle of claim 12, wherein the third fastener location also comprises a mating part of the two-part fastener so that the first fastener location can be fastened in mating engagement with either the second fastener location or the third fastener location. 14. A foldable receptacle having an open mode for receiving material, a secured mode for maintaining material within the receptacle, and a folded storage mode, comprising: a first side, a second side, a bottom having a width and depth, and a closeable open top; a first fastener part on the first side adjacent the open top; a first folding line along which the receptacle can be folded to close the open top; a second fastener part on the second side for receiving the first fastener part in mating engagement; a second folding line along which the receptacle can be folded to provide a double-fold closure of the open top of the receptacle and to align the first fastener part with the second fastener part; a third fastener part on the first side and spaced from the bottom a distance approximating the depth of the bottom for receiving the first fastener part in mating engagement; the receptacle being in the open mode when the first fastener part is not in mating engagement with either the second fastener part or the third fastener part; the receptacle being in the secured mode when the first fastener part is in mating engagement with the second fastener part and the open top is closed; the receptacle being in the folded storage mode when the receptacle is folded such that the bottom is disposed between a portion of the first side and another portion of the first side to provide a pass-through pocket and the first fastener part is in mating engagement with the third fastener part. 15. The receptacle of claim 14, further comprising a plurality of folding lines along which the receptacle can be folded sequentially to provide the pass-through pocket and to align the first fastener part with the third fastener part. 16. The receptacle of claim 15, wherein at least one of the first folding line, the second folding line, and the plurality of lines is visually depicted on the receptacle. 17. The receptacle of claim 2, wherein the pass-through pocket is of a size approximating the width and depth of the bottom to accommodate the disposition of an accessory therein, the accessory selected from the group consisting of a towelette packet, a medication packet, protective gloves, facial tissues, an anchor plate, or a flat pooper scooper. 18. The receptacle of claim 14, further comprising an indicia area having indicia thereon, the indicia area being positioned on the first side such that the indicia on the indicia area is visible when the receptacle is in the folded storage mode.
