What’s The Best Way To Save For Multiple Savings Goals At The Same Time?

I’d like to start multiple “fake” accounts so that I can instantly mark money as reserved for a future expense. So if my “house maintenance” account has enough money in it, I can start my next home repair project. Or if my “entertainment” account has enough, I can go out and buy that shiny new road bike.
In other words, I’d like to treat my savings account as multiple accounts. Then each account would receive a certain percentage each month.
It’s sort of like a pro-active budget, but I need a way of saying I have $x set aside for goal y at any point in time. Most budgets (that I’ve seen) only tell you there are $x remaining this month/year for goal y.
I’d like to a number of categories, so I don’t think opening a new savings account for each would be very practical.
Any ideas? What are you all doing for things like this? Do any banks offer something like this? Any software?
