thrifting 

When one visits several different thrift shops, second-hand shops, and vintage clothing stores in the hopes of buying several items of cheap and unusual clothing and other items. One usually does this with friends.
"Hey, where did you get that weird top?"
"Oh, I found it while thrifting, it was only a dollar."

shop thrifting 

When a person tells a cashier at a store that the item they are purchasing is cheaper at another store when really it is not. Usually the purchaser makes up a fake cheaper price as to save money and not spend too much. Usually done at Wal-Mart.

The act of steaming milk for a latte.
When throfting milk for a latte make sure you don't over heat it. I usually throft the milk first and then add the espresso to the fluffy milk.

threfting 

The same as thrifting, except that you steal the thrift-store merchandise instead of actually paying for it. 'Threfting' is a portmanteau word combining 'thrifting' and 'theft'.
Me and Adam went threfting the other day. We walked out in completely different clothes than what we walked in wearing and no one even noticed!
