We don't need that "extra" money so instead of acting like we earn it monthly we just put (most of it) in savings when it comes.

My budget only gets as far as making sure my bills add up to less than I make a month and when the money in checking gets over a certain point I move it into savings or investments. Being single also makes it simple since I'm the only one I have to worry about spending money and no kids to support.
