>> “What do the Bible, “The Hunger Games” and “Fifty Shades of Grey” have in common? All three are works of fiction, according to the booksellers at Costco.” <<

This is total BS.

Costco book tables are stacked with unlabeled boxes of books of all kinds, and the only sticker on any of them is the price (lowest in town).

Costco apologizes for California bible flap
November 20, 2013

A Costco store in Southern California drew some unwanted attention this week after labeling some of its Bibles as fiction.

The Los Angeles Times reports (http://lat.ms/18nVqRy) Wednesday that Discovery Church pastor Caleb Kaltenbach recently came across the Bibles with “Fiction” written on the price tag while shopping for a gift at a Costco store in Simi Valley. He took a photo and posted it on social media with the comment: “Costco has Bibles for sale under the genre of FICTION ...”

Costco has since apologized, saying in a statement a distributor mislabeled a small percentage of Bibles before they were sent to the store. The company said it is correcting the mistake for future distribution.

NOT TRUE

See if you can find a price on Dineesh DeSousa's book.

Costco took it off its tables because it was a conservative book and the president is a flaming liberal. Finally when forced they returned it (2 months later) they won't put a price on it. Costco knows from years of experience that items with no price don't sell. Draw your own conclusions about costo
