PIF — Pay It Forward

I got some queries as to what in the world was PIF. Well, if you remembered (good grief, 10 years ago?!), there was a movie back in 2000 titled Pay It Forward. A touching film with a stellar cast (ok, I love Helen Hunt and Haley Joel Osment), it immortalised and highlighted the multiplier effect, and showed how one small deed can change the world. Tasked to think of something to change the world and put it into action, a boy conjures the notion of paying a favour forward–repaying good deeds with new good deeds done to three new people.

In the ‘Etsy’ world, this is done via listing an item at just the cost of listing. Erhmm, USD 0.20. Plus shipping. It is all done in good faith. Because well, paying it forward is this simple.

So, have you found the PIFs yet? I promise to list more from time to time. :)
