Working Families Cut Corners, Worry Over the Economy

More grim news on the home front. A Zogby International poll found that 41% of U.S. workers used fewer utilities and 49% cut back on food purchases, due to the economy. Nearly a third of workers report sleepless nights because of financial worries, and nearly a quarter feel distracted on the job.

We’re definitely eating more economically, and I can’t remember the last time I bought clothes for myself. Working moms community, how have you made ends meet in these tough times?
