I actually hear "lift: used more often here in USA... also, we use a variant in "shoplift"....maybe its cuz im in shoplifting prevention (), so i hear "lifters" used quite often referring to shoplifters... anyways, some ive heard and needed to learn at my work (when we have UK people in the store): washroom (and something else) [uK] vs bathrooms/restrooms [uSA] and Dustbin [uK] vs Trash/Garbage Can [uSA]
