Make a file for each month. After paying your monthly bills file them in that months folder. When you get around to that month the next year, go through the file and see if you need to keep anything for another year and then shred the rest (do you really need last years water bill?). Only keep specific files for things like Insurance policies, pay stubs, car maintenance records, etc. Also keep a yearly tax file and put in everything that you will need for your tax return (receipts, donation slips...)
