Replacing "went" with "dashed" would make the language in the sentence more precise. This is because the verb "dashed" provides a clearer picture of the speed and energy with which people were moving. It conveys a sense of urgency or hurried activity, which "went" does not specify.
Here is the sentence with the more precise language:
Saturday morning, the shopping center buzzed with activity as people dashed in and out of stores.
