A carton suitable for dispensing flat, flexible bags and the like, having a top cover comprising a top panel, opposing side walls, and an end wall formed by at least one inwardly folded end panel extending from one of the opposing side walls, the end panel being slightly shorter in height than the opposing side walls so that the end panel forms an elongated bag dispensing slot in the end wall along an edge of the top panel; and an elongated flap extending from the edge of the top panel and being folded inwardly to overlap the end panel, the flap being removably secured to the end panel, thereby adding strength to the end wall while at the same time covering the bag dispensing slot.
