A lot of Costco's customers are small businesses who buy wholesale
from Costco and then resell at higher prices, but many individuals
shop as well. So shop=wholesale is probably reasonable.

Is the consensus that Costco and Sam's Club, etc. should just be
tagged shop=supermarket and some other tag (like membership=yes)?
