The usual stuff like mortgage, bills, savings for us, a gift account, and a little savings for the kids each, childcare/preschool (one day @ day care for the boys and two days @preschool for DD), groceries, living essentials like clothes, shoes ect, mostly for the kids though.
Other than that, if we have extra (DH will almost always earn a bit extra from OT), we pay half of what is left over off our CC, then half goes into an account for holidays. DH and I get a little play money each fortnight too, which is usually spent on things like food (lunches out, or treats like icecream...), magazines and books, and I am trying to make sure I get my hair done once every 8ish weeks or so.
But all of those extras are sporadic and only if we can afford it.
