comparison shop
Seek better deals
To comparison shop is to check prices at multiple stores or sources before buying: I spent an hour comparison shopping for the best deal on a laptop.
The practice has expanded with online shopping, where comparison shopping often happens through dedicated websites or browser extensions that aggregate prices across retailers.
