After years of abandonment, Costco and Apple has re-friend-ed each other and Costco will now stock all things Apple on its shelves and Costco's in store cell phone kiosks (Wireless Advocates) will carry the iPhone. As part of this arrangement, Costco will no longer carry Google Play gift cards.

That last part comes from an inside source.

Hmm. Interesting move on the part of Apple.

Only party that's doesn't benefit in this arrangement is Google, at least until Google Play gift cards become a hot item.

Its more of an interesting move on the part of Costco since it was Costco who booted Apple from its stores to begin with. What isn't sure is how this new relationship will stand up over time. Costco is about lowering the price and Apple is all about the bottom line. Even more so now that Apple isn't charging for upgrades anymore.
