1. Buy groceries and cook rather than eating out every meal — restaurants are spread out and add up. 2. Use the LYNX Blue Line light rail plus bus combo if visiting uptown Charlotte, as driving and parking is costly. 3. Fill up at gas stations in the suburbs (like those on Sugar Creek Road) rather than near the airport or interstate exits, where prices are higher.
