As another difficult year ends with bad news aplenty, we wanted to lift the mood by warming your cockles with inspiring MoneySaving successes from people who used our tips in 2021. These include a £17,500 chargeback refund after a bathroom botch, an £8,200 overpaid council tax reclaim and £3,000 for flogging rubbish on eBay.

This article was first written by MoneySavingExpert.com (MSE) team for our weekly email on 22 December 2021. It was updated by the MSE Team on 29 December 2021.  

Hopefully they provide motivation for you to follow in their footsteps, whether they righted wrongs, manipulated loopholes or ditched dire deals. So pick up a mince pie, pour yourself a warm mug of something nice, and indulge in a little festive cheer...

PS: If these success stories have inspired you, please tell us how much you saved, made or reclaimed.
