My "significant other" and I have worked out the following arrangement.

We put equal shares into a joint pot to pay for things like food, utility
bills, and household appliances and furnishings.  Some things though,
like our cars, really belong to one or the other of us and are paid
for accordingly.  Clothing, medical bills, etc are also paid for
separately.
We have one joint account, into which we put equal amounts.  The rest
of our incomes we each do with as we see fit.
