DETAILED DESCRIPTION Referring now to FIG. 1, the reference numeral 10 generally indicates a security deposit bag constructed according to the present invention. The security deposit bag in the illustrated embodiment takes the form of a flexible bag, envelope or the like, constructed of a strong, lightweight plastic material such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinylchloride, polyvinylidinechloride, vinyl acetate, multilayer films of these and other polymers and copolymers, copolymers of the above materials and others, metal foils, paper and paper-like materials, multilayer constructions of these and other materials. The container of this invention is efficiently and economically constructed so that it may be considered disposable upon receipt at its intended destination, with the contents of the bag removed. The bag 10 may be formed by folding over a rectangular sheet of material and sealing it along its sides. As is also shown in FIG. 2A, the bag thus formed includes bottom 15, right side 16, left side 18 and opening 20 providing access to interior 22 of the bag. Front panel 12 includes front and rear major surfaces 24 and 26, respectively. Rear panel 14 includes front and rear major surfaces 28 and 30, respectively. Although not shown, bag 10 may also be constructed with side and bottom panels, in addition to the front and rear panels illustrated. Since the end edge 32 of front panel 12 and end edge 34 of rear panel 14 of the bag are not aligned, flap 36 is formed by a portion of the rear panel. Flap 36 is provided to enclose opening 20 by folding the front surface 28 of the rear panel over into contact with front surface 24 of front panel 12. Adhesive closure means are provided to adhesively secure the rear panel 14 to the front panel 12 so as to enclose the opening 20. In the illustrated embodiment, the adhesive closure means includes laterally extending adhesive closure strip 38 adhered to the front surface 28 of the rear panel 14 and more specifically to flap 36
