exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus for displaying and storing an item, the apparatus comprising:
 a container configured to retain an item; and   a hang tab coupled to the container, the hang tab having a body portion having an aperture disposed therein, the aperture configured to receive a bracket of a retail display board, the hang tab further including first and second recessed regions disposed on opposing sides of the body portion, the hang tab including a support region configured for removably coupling the hang tab with the container.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the support region includes a flange extending from the recessed region. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the flange is wider than the hang tab body. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus according to  claim 3 , wherein the flange is orthogonal to the hang tab body. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the hang tab body is oval shaped. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus according to  claim 5 , wherein the flange is oval shaped. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the support region includes an aperture. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising a rotatable coupling. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising a bushing rotatably coupling the support region of the hang tab with the container. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the container includes a loop configured to attach to the support region. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the container includes a channel configured to attach to the support region. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the support region includes an aperture including an opening. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus according to  claim 12 , wherein the opening is narrower than another region in the aperture. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the recess includes a pinch point. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the body portion includes a pinch point. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the support region is integral with the aperture. 
     
     
         17 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the aperture includes a central indentation shaped to receive a round rod. 
     
     
         18 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the hang tab body is double wishbone shaped. 
     
     
         19 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the hang tab body is X-shaped. 
     
     
         20 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the hang tab body is L-shaped. 
     
     
         21 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein recessed region is removably coupled to the hang tab body. 
     
     
         22 . The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the aperture is triangular. 
     
     
         23 . An apparatus for storing earphones, the apparatus comprising:
 a body portion having an aperture disposed therein, the aperture configured to receive a bracket of a retail display board, the body portion including first and second recessed regions disposed on opposing sides of the body portion,   a flange extending from the body portion at the recessed region.   
     
     
         24 . A method of storing earphones, the method comprising
 opening a container including the earphones stored therein;   uncoupling a hang tab from the container, the hang tab included a plurality of recessed regions; and   wrapping a cord of the earphones in the recessed regions.
