A receptacle for secure mail and parcel receipt and storage. The receptacle includes a top which provides a roof for the receptacle, a base, and a housing connected to the top and the base. The housing includes an upper compartment into which mail is first placed, a lower compartment into which mail is deposited from the upper compartment, a front door, located on a front of the receptacle, which is opened to provide access to the upper compartment and through which mail is placed into the upper compartment, a trap door, operatively connected to the front door, in the upper compartment, and an access door that includes a lock. The trap door rests in an open position when the front door is closed, allowing communication between the upper and lower compartments. The trap door is moved to a closed position by the opening of the front door, thereby preventing access to the lower compartment from the upper compartment. The trap door returns to the open position when the front door is closed, depositing any mail placed in the upper compartment into the lower compartment. The access door is unlocked and opened to provide access to the lower compartment, whereby mail deposited and stored in the lower compartment may be retrieved through the access door.

An improved wine container and dispenser system is provided having a container that forms an overall, generally cylindrical housing exemplarily formed of a left barrel half or first cylindrical casing opposite a right barrel half or second cylindrical casing, and a front lid opposite a rear lid. A tray is positioned inside the container so that it slants toward the opening which accommodates the pour spout. The sloping profile of the tray facilitates in using the entire contents without having to tilt the wine container and dispenser system. An outer sheath circumscribes the assembled barrel body, and a spout, in fluid communication with an internally stored, compressible fluid bladder. This outer sheath is placed around the assembled container to provide two functions: to provide an indicia supporting surface to allow for placement of branding material, printed logo or advertisement, and can work in conjunction with the overall container to provide a unique brand differentiation; and, to provide an inwardly tensioned securing force to the assembled barrel halves to provide an overall rigidity to the assembly for handling, shipping, and packing. The spout is protected by a spout cover that is removably affixed to the front lid.
