File backups from Maintenance Plan (2008 R2)

$

I can never get enough backups, so besides backing up my databases to tape each night, I also have local file backups created under the maintenance plan section that backs up all my databases and their transaction logs.

The one problem I have is that I'd like to only keep 1 backup of each database, so I've set it to expire after 1 day, but apparently that does not delete the older files, and if I don't delete them myself, the disk will fill up pretty quickly (doing FULL backups).

I could've sworn I had this setup so it only keeps the most current backup file before, but now it won't do it.

What am I missing?

Thanks!
