DOUBLE WHAMMY











Double whammy a situation that is bad in two different ways; a situation in which two bad conditions exist at the same time or two bad things happen almost at the same time:
With the cold weather and the high cost of heating fuel, homeowners were hit with a double whammy this winter.
The high cost of health care and his lack of medical insurance was a double whammy.
Farmers have ​faced the ​double ​whammy of a ​rising ​dollar and ​falling ​agricultural ​prices.
Critics claim that the cuts in public spending coupled with a pay freeze is a double whammy which will affect low-paid workers badly.
