still... gumball / gumballs

I have a few images of bubble gum (gumballs) that will only come up with the search of the plural and do not come up if the keywords gumball and machine are typed in. They sell fairly regularly so I'm reluctant to remove the 's' and the system will not allow me to type in both singular and plural.

thanks

interesting question - as someone said, we are two countries separated by a common language

maybe SS could add BrE and AmE pairs automatically: shouldn't be too hard using the existing structure for automatic translation and singular / plural

pavement / sidewalk
lift / elevator
holiday / vacancy
theatre / theater
hoarding / billboard
travelling / traveling
centre / center
...
