Because just havinig a budget for electric doesn't mean you hit that number every month; it's not something you have that level of control over.
Our food budget varies because our menu and tastes vary and our schedule varies. If I'm out of town dh and the kids will eat out more and our grocery bill will be less. When the kids have lots of activities, we out more adn the grocery bill is less. During the summer our grocery bill goes up because we grill a lot of things like steak and seafood, and eat a lot of freshly grown (farmer's market) produce, that are more expensive than we might eat in the winter.

Yes, the bill stays at one price for the year. They will recalculate it at the end of the year. We do have to pay about $10 extra that last month but it will go back down. We don't have a large home though.
