The email also answers the question of what areas will be affected by the discontinuation of the double/triple coupon policy. See if your Houston Area Kroger is listed below.

Thanks for the continued updates and hard work on this!!
There is a strange coincidence in Ohio though. My sister got her Kroger circular for next week (Effective 4/4 thru 4/10) and the double coupon wording is GONE!! There is a blank space on the bottom right side of the front page of the circular, where is has ALWAYS said Double Coupons on manufacturers’ coupons up to 99 cents. I would have thought it was a printing error if not for your warnings.
The circular had a lot of new promotions for faster checkouts, digital coupons and new lower prices. That could mean a printing mistake with all of the changes made. But with your warning and these new promos it sounds more like double coupons end.
Hopefully Kroger can clarify this for everyone. (Please be a printing error!)
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you!
