Household supplies from detergent to diapers are poised to slap consumers with sticker shock this fall, even as the US slowly emerges from the pandemic.
Procter & Gamble — the maker of Tide detergent, Pampers diapers and Gillette razors — said Tuesday it plans to raise prices on a slew of products by September, citing the rising cost of raw materials and shipping.

“Biden’s fault. Hope all these lockdown lovers enjoy the pain.”
I will be able to withstand it. I will enjoy a heavy helping of schadenfreude listening to Biden voters whine and cry!
I’ve heard that long before Pampers were invented, ‘people’, usually Moms, had to wash and reuse cloth diapers.
To put it mildly, that probably takes some getting used to, but if a Baby is in your charge, you don’t really have a choice. Not everyone can afford Day Maids.
Maybe if you stop spending $$ on all your woke commercials you could keep prices down, morons
Most everything is going to s**t since the Democrat Communist stole the election. The price of gas, lumber everything is going up, as they get ready to burn, loot and riot.
Money laundering
Poised?
It’s already happening. For food and alcohol too.
And energy.
And all manner of manufactured goods.
And all services.
Everything is going up and has been for a while.
Elections have consequences.
Inflation is basically a tax that hurts those least able to absorb rising costs.
People living on fixed incomes will feel it as they watch their purchasing power steadily diminish.
Oh...and actual taxes are going up too.
I probably washed and folded thousands of diapers in the 60s.....as did all the Moms in my neighborhood....
..no big deal.

Everything is going up and has been for a while.

True but its in the process of shifting into high gear.
“Poised”
I’m shocked at the grocery store — milk, eggs, produce, cookies, meat. Inflation is raging and just as we are both going into retirement and fixed income. What a disaster.
Hyperinflation will do that.
“ticking up prices on major brands, as is Hormel Foods”
So, I can sell my Spam stash for big $$$?
Inflation is the only way out of the trillions and trillions they fabricated out of thin air. All of it needlessly done because of a mild disease. The cure is going to be far worse than the disease.
I didn’t realize it but a pundit said a certain cutoff age of Americans never lived through inflation. Only a theory to them.
It’s a lesson they’ll soon learn.
I remember resenting how corporations would cover up their mistakes and leader ineptitude by saying “We have to raise prices again. Inflation, you know.” That supposedly covers them.
When Biden quickly caused oil problems (ban on fracking, end of pipeline work) he made everything that is carried anywhere by plane, train or truck more expensive and mail and package deliveries more costly. Now that the young morons destroyed shopping malls.
WE don’t deserve that. The lousy Dems do.
We went from make American great, to trash America, trash the economy and punish the people, the minute Biden took office.
