25,466 raw U.S. pantyliner price observations across 12 ZIP markets and 29 days.
Pantyliner Prices Raw Dataset (2026)
Analyze 25,466 unaggregated product-level listed retail prices for disposable pantyliners across 12 U.S. ZIP markets from July 13 through August 10, 2026. The single analysis-ready CSV preserves titles, dates, geography, package quantities, listed prices, and a source-neutral comparable-price field.
What “raw” means here: unaggregated product-level observations after scope and safety filtering. The file includes derived normalization fields; it is not untouched acquisition data.
Dataset at a glance
A result worth investigating
The P90 comparable price was 5.3× the P10. Across compatible rows, the 100 liners-equivalent price ranged from a P10 of $5.91 to a P90 of $31.09, a 5.3× spread. This is a distribution description, not a matched-product quality or value claim.
What one row represents
One row is one quality-filtered product-title, ZIP-market, date, package-quantity, and listed-price observation. It is not a sale, order, demand, inventory, market-share, or consumer record. Distinct offers may share a title, ZIP, and date; exact duplicate public rows are removed.
Comparable-price method
The fixed comparison target is 100 liners. Compatible count units normalize to 100 liners; unresolved counts remain blank. Size, absorbency, and material are not treated as performance-equivalent. Original package fields remain available for audit.
Columns
Project ideas
- Compare 100-liner package-equivalent prices
- Track matched product titles through time
- Compare selected ZIP markets
- Run reproducible EDA and missing-value analysis
Quick start with Pandas
import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv(
"costinflation-pantyliner-retail-prices-raw-2026-07-13-to-2026-08-10.csv",
dtype={"geography_id": "string"},
)
comparable = df.dropna(subset=["normalized_price_amount"]).copy()
print(comparable["normalized_price_amount"].describe())Quality and limitations
- All 348 expected date × ZIP-market combinations are present.
- Exact duplicate public rows: 0. The preparation pass removed 0 byte-identical input repeats.
- Scope review excluded 3 definite out-of-scope or unsafe titles representing 19 input rows.
- Product titles are descriptive text, not stable public product identifiers.
- ZIP labels describe selected markets, not citywide estimates; the panel is not nationally representative.
- Availability and title wording can change unmatched aggregates through assortment change.
- Shipping, tax, redeemed promotions, purchases, and product performance are outside the dataset.
