A ticket dispenser for dispensing a pleated ribbon of tickets, the ticket dispenser comprising a ticket storage chamber within a housing and a ticket dispensing aperture, wherein the housing has opposed ticket display and rear walls, and also has opposed first and second walls that each extend between the ticket display wall and the rear wall, the display wall comprising: an outer wall having an interior face, and an inner ticket pathway guide proximate the outer wall, providing a ticket display pathway extending along the interior face of the outer wall, between the outer wall and the inner ticket pathway guide, the ticket display pathway having a pathway inlet, wherein the ticket dispenser is configured for a ticket to be drawn out from within the storage chamber, through the pathway inlet, along the ticket display pathway towards the first wall, and out through the dispensing aperture, wherein the ticket storage chamber has a chamber length extending along the display wall between the first wall and the second wall, and the ticket display pathway extends along more than half of the chamber length, wherein the ticket storage chamber is provided with a storage chamber guide configured to space tickets apart from the display wall adjacent a central portion along the length of the ticket display pathway, and wherein the storage chamber guide extends to a maximal separation from the ticket display pathway at a location that is closer to the first wall than the separation between the pathway inlet and the first wall.

A dispensing apparatus comprises a generally cylindrical housing, and attachment means adapted for attaching the housing to a support structure, such as an intravenous tubing line. The housing can contain a plurality of planar, interconnected items that are rolled up into a single roll. The interconnected items can be a plurality of individually packaged items, such as sanitizing wipes, in which each individual package is attached to another individual package along a line of perforation. A rolling mechanism can be mounted in the housing that supports the roll of wipes thereon and facilitates rotation of the roll.
