I believe "wallet" is also very customary where I live. I've never heard billfold used by anyone here: writing or speaking.

Usually I call condoms "condoms", and most people I know also call them "condoms". Rubber is slang, albeit rarely used in my area of the US. People usually think "condom" when you say "rubber", though.

I'll be sure that the next time I want to end a relationship with or ignore someone from the UK, I'll blow 'em off. ;D

I'll contribute my own. Hopefully it's not been said!
