Not as far as I know. But you can set up Savings Goals. (Link)Debt-free day: 8th May 2015 "Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck," Dalai Llama0 -

Evening all - at last I've finished work for two weeks:j:j
Just a few small things today as I have also managed to spend the best part of £50 on shopping and a few extra last minute pressies.
Little things...- Hairdresser trimmed my fringe for free as I have a proper appt for next week but can't stand the hair in my eyes any longer
- Picked up a few food bits to tide me over until I go to Wales for Xmas
- Talked myself out of a takeaway (wasn't really very hungry I was honest with myself) and had 11p supernoodles instead:rotfl:
- Walked dog for a bit of fresh air and gentle exercise for him
- Staying in tonight - some friends from work were going out but I didn't really fancy it and it would have cost me at least £30 including taxis
- Checked bank - still no refund from elec company :mad:
- Make some plans for the weekend - last few quiet days before the onslaught of Xmas with the family
