stay in

Skip going out

To stay in is to remain indoors rather than going out: We decided to stay in and watch a movie.

The phrase often implies a deliberate choice to skip social activities or avoid venturing out: It's raining—let's just stay in tonight.

Stay in can also mean to remain in a particular state or condition: Stay in touch, stay in shape.
