Other Ways To Save

If you live in Asheville, NC, you have a multitude of activities and entertainment right outside your front door. You can see a concert every night at the Orange Peel, eat out at one of the many culinary hot spots, or go on whitewater rafting excursions every summer.

Asheville has a lot of fun experiences to offer, but paying for those experiences can be tough when you don’t have a savings account.

Opening a First Bank savings account is a great way to start saving, but there are other things you can do to cut down your spending and put even more money away for a rainy day, including:

Try cooking over the campfire or grilling out in your own backyard. You’ll get to enjoy the beautiful outdoors, spend time with your family, and save money on food.
Try river tubing for a low-cost, relaxing experience. River tubing can cost you as little as $20 a person.
Try walking around and finding your new favorite street performer or visit a few art galleries. You can often find a street performer on every corner in downtown Asheville, and there are plenty of galleries full of works by talented local artists. Who knows? You might just discover the next big thing in music or art!

Fraud Protection: 5 Reminders to Avoid Smishing and Vishing Scams Use these five helpful reminders to stay safe: Stay on alert for suspicious SMS text messages stating payments have been made using your account or Zelle information. These types of messages are called smishing. Phishers send a text, supposedly from your financial institution, asking you to confirm transactions made from your account by responding with a simple “Yes” or “No”, prompting a possible phone call from them immediately after. Do not respond to these types of messages. Instead, call your financial institution directly to confirm they have sent you a message about your account or to make sure there are no actual unknown transactions. When calling your financial institution, always call the number from the institution’s website or the number found on the back of your debit/credit card. If you feel you have been a victim of an SMS text messaging scam, call your financial institution for immediate assistance.
