Grocery brand Publix is changing a longtime self check-out rule as a way to give store associates more flexibility when it comes to customers using the company's self checkout registers.

There is no longer a 10-item or less requirement at the grocer's express checkout lanes, according to a Southern Living report.

The goal is focused on reducing wait times and more efficient customer service.
