More not so great news on the economic front:

P&G will boost product prices by up to 16%.

Daniel Barry/Bloomberg News/file
By Bloomberg News / July 8, 2008

Procter & Gamble, which makes Tide, said higher costs, including energy, led to a price increase.

CLEVELAND - Procter & Gamble Co., the maker of Tide laundry detergent and Head & Shoulders shampoo, will raise prices as much as 16 percent because of higher costs for plastic, energy, and paper.

The increases are the Cincinnati-based company's steepest in at least 18 months. Procter & Gamble is betting that customers will continue to buy its Gillette shaving cream and Ivory soap rather than switching to store brands with lower prices promoted by Kroger Co. and Wal-Mart Stores Inc.

"Consumers are conditioned to expect that price increases are here to stay, and they are going to see that across the board," said Peter Sorrentino, who helps oversee assets of $16.7 billion at Huntington Asset Advisors. "They will try the store brands, but if the product performance isn't there, they will switch back." His Cincinnati-based firm owns P&G shares.

Retailers will pay P&G 2 to 16 percent more for fabric, home and hair care, bar soaps, and health and shaving products beginning in September, P&G spokesman Paul Fox said yesterday. Commodity expenses will climb more than $2 billion this year, he said.

P&G previously added 4 to 8 percent to prices in the past 18 months, Fox said.

The company tries to counter as much as a third of rising expenses for pulp, used in paper, tallow, an animal fat used in soap, and oil-based products such as plastics through the reduction of distribution costs, Fox said.

"We don't price in anticipation," Fox said. "We only price to recover costs."

US consumers have slowed spending as costs for milk and bread increase and gasoline remains above $4 a gallon. The US economy lost jobs for the sixth straight month in June, the Labor Department said last week, raising the risk that people will cut back further.

I found this interesting. Another trend: a younger demographic getting involved in an activity traditionally dominated by women 50 and older. I guess we found that out when talking about our ages. I just assumed that most people on these coupon sites were in their 40's and 50's...now I find out you're all in your 20's and 30's. Us, "older folks" are in the minority! laugh out loud

i've always learned from my grandma about couponing.

i asked her to save the coupons from her inserts so i could help her find good deals, and she freaking gave me a suitcase full of NO EXPIRATION coupons! laugh out loud it was hilarious bc half the product i'd never even heard of they were so old! and the others were like save 10 cents on eggs. thats all it said! no brand or anything...

And you can add me to the list of 30 somethings that are into couponing. It's always been a hobby for me- every dollar saved is more I can spend on books, bags or Gymboree. Hmm and gas. Big Grin

Glad to know I'm not the only one that is in the 50+ club. As a card I got on my last birthday said: "55 isn't just a speed limit anymore!"

I've been clipping coupons since I was a little kid. I used to help my Dad clip the newspaper coupons--this was waaaaay before there were glossy inserts.
