We have a "Bill" account and all bills/groceries/gas/not fun stuff paid out of my account. Then we have 2 more accounts for personal items/fun
I manually (jk excel VBA ftw) categorize all bills spending at end of every month and bar graph it compared to budgeted amounts.
Budgets have built in reserve factors I made based on anticipated and previous experience. Reserve releases are determined at beginning of the year once acceptable reserves are met.
Tl:dr, in excel after I manually categorize spending taken from statements, I use VBA to graph budget categories for SO to understand. Once acceptable reserves are met for each category, extra profits are swept into our personal spending accounts
