Coin Jar style Personal Finance Management Strategies and Ideas

Sweep Jar: At the end of the month, anything that’s left in my account that is over X amount it puts into the pot. So if I have £100 left at the end of the month and I say Sweep Over £50, it’ll save £50 into my jar.

Building on the idea of a “Quiet Coin Jar” and “Save over X”, it would also be awesome if there was a pot that said, whenever I get paid, automatically take a fixed amount from that payment. So if I get paid £500 and set £50 to be put into a pot, it deducts it. In theory, I’d rather not know it’s been taken away.
