Absolutey true staz024 - the woman crying on TV saying she has gone without a meal in order to feed her kids, probably had just been to the letterbox and seen her winter electricity bill. Feeling desperate, she then resorted to a skipped meal. The problem should not be seen as anything other than multi-dimensional as there are so many demands on the household budget, which are often hard to foresee or anticipate, and it is this which causes the panic attacks for households on limited incomes. My sympathies are with such folk.
