Pull-Ups Training Pants Prices to Climb

If prices keep climbing like this Paul Krugman may have to buy some Pull-Ups for himself.
Kimberly-Clark, the maker of Huggies and Kleenex, said Monday that it plans to raise prices, its third such announcement since the middle of March.


One of Kimberly-Clark's competitors, Procter & Gamble Co., said Monday it will raise prices for Pampers diapers, Charmin toilet paper and Bounty paper towels by 3 to 7 percent.

In March, Kimberly-Clark said it would raise U.S. prices on Huggies baby wipes and diapers, Pull-Ups training pants and GoodNites youth pants by an average of 3 to 7 percent this summer. It said it would raise prices for Cottonelle and Scott toilet paper by an average of 7 percent.

Last week, it said it would raise prices on some of the products it sells to hospitals and other companies.
