If you can actually avoid the travel, sure.

I have been able to avoid travelling by car[0], but I have the luck of being in a city with good public transport and local-sized shops, so there are 5 tram stops (and several bus stops and a suburban rail station) and 8 supermarkets closer to me than the gap between the middles of Apple's south car park and their duck pond.

And back in Cambridgeshire, roads were quiet enough I was comfortable commuting (and shopping) by bike.

Not everyone is in such a well-designed place.

[0] I don't own a car, and the last time I was behind a wheel was, I think, 2017.
