Welcome to AC.

Wherever you buy it, and whatever the cost, make sure it's a genuine battery of reputable make.

It may not be the battery, especially if your device is less than 2 years old. It may be something running endlessly and draining the battery. Go to Settings > Battery and see what's going on there.

But if you do want to get a new one, I got an Anker one, works tremendously well.
