Hey students! Let's play a fun game called "Price Guess Challenge". I've got a list of items with their estimated prices, and I want you to guess the total cost before we reveal the actual prices from the sales paper. Let's see which group can get the closest estimate! Afterward, we'll chat about why being good at estimation is super important for budgeting. Ready, set, estimate!

Create a bar graph of the prices of different categories of items (e.g., fruits, vegetables, snacks). Discuss which categories are the most and least expensive.
