Customers are starting to notice an increase in prices among consumer goods, such as baby diapers, adult diapers, under pads and other everyday items,
as the country's economy downturn from the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 lockdown,

Plastic, paper, sugar, grain and other goods are all getting more expensive as demand exceeds supply.
Companies are also paying more for shipping and experience longer delays because of port congestion.

Kimberly-Clark announced price hikes for its products like Huggies diapers and Scott toilet paper would begin next month.

"Nearly all of the increases will be effective in late June and impact the company's baby and child care, adult care and Scott bathroom tissue businesses" the company said in a news release.

Proctor & Gamble also announced in April its prices would increase in September in three categories — baby care, feminine and adult incontinence — due to the rising of raw material costs.

The companies didn't say exactly how much the products will cost but said new prices will vary by brands.
However, the final store retail price is at the sole discretion of the retailers.
