For Starters...

Hello! If you've stumbled upon our little "Just For Fun" lifestyle blog, welcome! As a first post, I thought I should share a little bit about how this blog came about.

When my husband and I first started going out, one of the first things I learnt about him was that he had an impeccable way of making our dates fun but really cheap. Which was great for us, as we both knew that a youth/social worker (that's him) and a pastor (that's me) would have to be very creatively frugal so that we could still maintain a fun standard of living. Between his cheap finds and my experimental-DIY projects, we've managed to pull off a few adventures.

One of his co-workers made a passing comment a while ago that he should start blogging about his fun finds to do stuff for cheap because it had become quite an entertainment for them, so I thought, well, why not? (His input: Yep, *you* can do that if you want.) We are not extreme couponers or lifestyle gurus by any means; just a couple of fun-seekers sharing our finds.

A little bit about us... Stephen and I met through an alternate reality game called Ingress (the predecessor of Pokemon Go). His IGN (In-Game Name) is Gingernater (he's a red-head), and mine is KampongNinja (translates to "village ninja" as a reflection of my Asian roots). Together, we became the GingerNinja and this is our blog about living on a shoestring budget. Thanks for reading!
