Just to let you all know. I got this card 3 days ago here in the States. Spokane WA, to be exact. I have tried multiple combinations of the answer given by the few before us. They were all not accepted.
1. Coffee Pot/ Percolater/ Cafetiere
2. Aerosol/ Air duster/ WD 40
3. Lighter
4. Earbud/ earphone/ headphone
5. Shoe/ Trainer
6. Croissant/ Pastry
All the following are incorrect each time I have put them in. I have no idea what we call these in the States other than what I have suggested...
Any help? Please Email me.

Not sure what being in the states has to do with it; there aren't different answers for us.
I don't remember which set of answers I used, but it's one of the ones on the previous page of this link. All I can suggest is, notwithstanding your excellent spelling here, perhaps you had a typo in your entry?

Thanks for the reply guys, unfortunately I cannot post my answers til midnight PAC Standard Time here in the States... SO I will have to let you all know then. Thanks for the replys though. It frustrating sometimes when you put in an answer, and then a week later it is the right one because of language barriers...hehe.

other thoughts..... I re-read all the posts, and was thinking about the following pattern:
1. Mako (The most common Italian-brand percolator, with the octagonal-shape)
2.
3. Zippo (Very popular lighter brand)
4.
5.
6. Phyllo (or "filo" dough - used in popular dishes such as baklava)
All end in an "o"...
Can you fill in answers for the others that match?

Well, I can tell you that's definitely not a zippo. It's one of those disposable lighters.
Also, has anyone thought about deodorant as number 2?

I thought that initially. However I tried putting that in and it was incorrect. Changing that one to what everyone else put in made my answers correct.
