Bills you probably don't need to save for more than the quarter. I keep bank statements for as long as I do my check stubs. And 2 yrs. returns are what you'd need to get a house-which is basically what I base my timelines on.

The IRS has three years to audit you from the date of your return, so keep them for at least as long.
Wow, I've been keeping 7 years' worth of tax returns. (Mind you, I don't itemize.)
Awesome. I'm going to shred some bank statements right now!
Since bank statements and bills are all digitized and available online now, is there really any need to keep them at all? You can get them if you need them, right? RIGHT???!!!

In order to get my current job, I had to produce tax returns from about 7 years ago. I am just saying.
Yeah, I don't get them in paper format at all anymore. (Bank statements, I mean.)
