my husband is the only one that works. i am a stay at home mom to two young children. i do not work outside the home because we could not afford daycare. We live paycheck to paycheck and our money is tight. We do not get any outside help exept WIC. I need tips and ideas to save us some money. Between groceries and gas and diapers were broke. Our electric bill is insne.help???

Switch over to compact fluorescent light bulbs one or two at a time. They will save you money over their regular cousins. Install motion sensing ligt switches that cut off when you are not in the room so you don’t burn the bill up there. Turn down the thermostat for the water heater. Wash all your clothes on cold water to use less electricity. If teh car is gettin gless than 30 MPG than maybe your husband should switch to riding a bicycle to work unless theweather is really bad like snowing. I did it for 6 months before and saved a ton of money in the process. Do you clip coupons from the paper? you can save money there as well, get a frequent shopper discount card for two or three different grocery stores and always do comparison shopping. You can save quite a bit of money that way.
The two links I included have a variety of ways to cave some cash. Hope this helps
