FirstBank Scrimps. Like You.

To show how it’s all home-grown and waste-free, FirstBank blew its ad wad on a poster tied to the end of a wee biplane. The creative reads, “This is the closest thing we have to a private jet.”

“They’re not into extravagances,” explained CD Jonathan Schoenberg of TDA Advertising & Design. “They haven’t taken any bailout money. And they’re doing great.”

That’s about as charming as gingham. Other witty low-budget efforts have included this ski mask thing and this reusable holiday ad thing.
