It is true that we can't actually lower the prices, but for food we can certainly be more careful where we shop, pay attention to sales, use coupons, switch to less costly brands, and eliminate waste. As for gas, we can eliminate unnecessary driving, keep our cars well maintained, check the tire air pressure, avoid quick starts and speeding to maximize efficiency.
