every now and then, rub a bar of soap on the pedal "claw" mechanism that engages the cleats.
Easy, free and works great.

Or beeswax, a bit more waterproof.
For pedals, it’s hard to beat spd for walking around, but if that’s unimportant, I really like the old Look or Look-licensed Shimano pedals that take Delta cleats. They are usually very inexpensive and the bearings never seem to wear out; and I have a slight preference for the larger platform + larger engagement + no metal to metal creakiness as with spd’s.
