If you're worried about inflation rearing its ugly head next year, you should probably worry about more likely catastrophes, such as being eaten by bees.

Dividend-paying stocks. Most companies would welcome a chance to raise prices. When they can, dividend-paying companies will be able to increase their dividends. One good place to look for dividend-paying stocks is Standard & Poor's Dividend Aristocrats. These companies have raised their dividends every year for at least 25 years. High-quality dividend-paying stocks are the usual hunting grounds for equity-income funds.
