         4 . The product packaging of  claim 3 , wherein the cover at least partially covers the tray in a removable manner.  
     
     
         5 . The product packaging of  claim 2 , wherein the one or more product containers are disposed around a perimeter of an interior area of the outer shell; and wherein the void is in a central portion of the interior area.  
     
     
         6 . The product packaging of  claim 1 , wherein the premium is at least partially visible from outside the outer shell through at least one window.  
     
     
         7 . The product packaging of  claim 6 , wherein the window extends through the top panel.  
     
     
         8 . The product packaging of  claim 6 , wherein the window extends through the bottom panel.  
     
     
         9 . The product packaging of  claim 6 , wherein a first window extends through the top panel and wherein a second window extends through the bottom panel.  
     
     
         10 . The product packaging of  claim 6 , wherein the window further comprises an aperture.  
     
     
         11 . The product packaging of  claim 10 , wherein the window further comprises a plurality of arms extending into the void from an edge of the aperture; wherein the plurality of arms are associated with a support member for positioning the premium.
