Groupon.COM and UK credit cards

Hi, I'm going to Vegas in a few weeks and wanted to buy a Groupon deal but I can't get the site to accept my card. The problem I think is the card address has a state drop down list which doesn't contain UK cities!
Does anybody know a way around this please?

Phone the company up. Ask if they will match the price they are doing it on Groupon,0

Stick 90210 as the zip code and California as the state, and then cram your uk address in the rest of the address fields. I did this a few weeks ago and it went through fine although I did get a security call from my credit card (post office) to confirm that I'd made the payment and it wasn't fraud :-)0

Thanks guys! I had problems with my card being blocked initially, called them to unblock (Barclays).
Then I added again in Chrome, slightly different and put in a Vegas zip code and Nevada state alongside my home address. Worked a treat.0
