Has anybody found a source of tissue packets that open in the middle?

Thanks.

I use KLEENEX brand tissues that I get 8 packets for about 30 cents per packet from Dollar General, Wamart and CVS. Last night, a gal told me she picks up the packets for a lot less from DOLLAR TREE, but she couldn't remember for sure how many packets in a dollar package.

The KLEENEX has a little sticky tab attached to the center split that I simply fold under when I put a packet into a tissue holder.

So far, the Kleenex is the only brand I have found---------have never been in a DOLLAR TREE store. And I've never seen a packet that opened from the side. Can't quite figure why any manufacturer would want to complicate a simple object such as a tissue packet by making it difficult to use.
