I recently came across a discussion of “PIF-Pay It Forward” items on Etsy. The general principal is that these items are listed and “for sale” for free (they say that they cost 20 cents typically), and the only cost of them is paying the good deed forward to others.
A quick search of “PIF” pulls up ten pages of items! The last time I checked, there were two. With the sourpuss mood I’ve had lately, seeing something like this reminds me of great people can be. I think this is a great way to spread good vibes and happy thoughts, while building up some good karma.
Pay it Forward to the wonderful women in your life with The Wonder Woman Surprise PIF. Remind someone you love that Spring is coming with these Clover notecards. How about surprising the dancer or ACEO collector in your life with this beautiful Ballerina ACEO. If you’re an etsy seller, this is a great way to build good will by including your shop in Paying It Forward.

I do love this. I just received a very nice PIF the other day and am so grateful for it! Now it’s my turn to offer one.
Had not heard of this and I too love it.
