Yes, there are less expensive ways to move your teeth. You would have to ask your orthodontist for less expensive alternatives. They do exist.

Most Orthodontists charge the same for traditional braces or Invisalign. Investing in yourself is money well spent. Going with the cheapest route is a good idea on lots of things in life, but when it pertains to your body, you don't want to go for the cheapest option. Cheap braces often lead to expensive problems like TMJ disorder.
There is clear correct, but it's like being your own doctor, it is very limited and the results are not as impressive. There is always traditional braces. It really depends on your case. Don't do the cheapest route because it is something you will live with for a long time! You want to love your new smile at the end!
There are always cheaper alternatives, however, that might not always be a good thing, especially when it comes to one’s health & well being. There are companies now that straighten your teeth by mail. I, personally, am not a fan of this, I believe you should be monitored by a dentist periodically during your treatment.
