Like seveal others, we staple receipts to warranty/owners manuals and they go in a drawer in the server in our dining room until we get rid of or break the item, then it gets thrown out/donated/whatever with the manual.

Other receipts go in an envelope in a cabinet above our planning desk. I keep it until it's very full (usually about 4 months worth) then it sits on the shredder until the next envelope is full. I shred the one sitting on the shredder when I move the one from the cabinet to the shredder, so I usually keep them total for about 8 months.
