         4 . The wrist-worn hand sanitizer dispenser packet of  claim 1 , wherein the tubular structure comprises printed material thereon. 
     
     
         5 . The wrist-worn hand sanitizer dispenser packet of  claim 1 , wherein the valve comprises a spring and a ball pressed against a seat, the valve having an adjustable pressure-sensitive fluid release spring chamber. 
     
     
         6 . The wrist-worn hand sanitizer dispenser packet of  claim 5 , wherein the valve has a conduction path existing from the first end thereof to a second end thereof. 
     
     
         7 . The wrist-worn hand sanitizer dispenser packet of  claim 1 , wherein a special tool does not need to be used to refill the bladder. 
     
     
         8 . A clip, comprising:
 a body having a tubular shape; and   a channel formed through the body and extending along an entire length thereof,   wherein the channel comprises a notch having a terminal end coextensive with an end of the body, the terminal end of the notch having a width less than the diameter of the end of the body.   
     
     
         9 . The clip of  claim 8 , wherein the clip comprises a plastic material. 
     
     
         10 . The clip of  claim 9 , wherein the clip consists of polyoxymethylene (acetal). 
     
     
         11 . The clip of  claim 8 , wherein the clip is configured to prevent reverse flow in a paste tube. 
     
     
         12 . The clip of  claim 8 , wherein the body comprises printed material thereon. 
     
     
         13 . A dispenser, comprising:
 a holster comprising a first ply and a second ply;   a reservoir comprising a first sheet and a second sheet connected at edges thereof;   a dispensing aperture arranged between the first sheet and the second sheet;   a fluid recharge opening in the reservoir on an opposite side of the dispensing aperture, the fluid recharge opening to permit refilling a fluid cavity in the reservoir, wherein the reservoir is prepared for sealing by applying at least one folded layer at the fluid recharge opening.   
     
     
         14 . The dispenser of  claim 13 , wherein:
 the second ply forms a pocket on the first ply; and   the reservoir is arranged in the pocket between the first ply and the second ply.   
     
     
         15 . The dispenser of  claim 14 , wherein the pocket comprises a first opening and a second opening,
 the reservoir being arranged in the pocket in the first opening, and   the dispensing aperture extending through the second opening.   
     
     
         16 . The dispenser of  claim 15 , wherein the holster further comprises a first end having a first connector arranged thereon and a second end having a second connector arranged thereon, and
 the first connector is configured to connect to the second connector, thereby securing the first end of the holster to the second end of the holster.   
     
     
         17 . The dispenser of  claim 13 , wherein a special tool does not need to be used to refill the reservoir.
