Tipsters frequenting Apple job listing have uncovered five new Apple store locations that are scheduled to debut some time this year.

The listings reveal that Apple will open its first Oklahoma-based retail store at Penn Square in Oklahoma City. Another store scheduled for Arlington, Virginia will touch down at Pentagon City, just minutes from the Pentagon building — the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense.

Apple will also open stores in: Paramus, New Jersey at the Garden State Plaza; Northbrook Court in Northbrook, Illinions; and the Florida Mall in Orlando, Florida. Tipsters speculate that at least some of the stores will fit Apple's new mini store layout.
