When did the free 2-3 day shipping switch to USPS from FedEx?

An order I placed yesterday with the over $50 free shipping option selected is being shipped using USPS. I ordered some replacement noots because I will be out in a couple of days, so I was expecting to get what I ordered by Saturday with the free 2-3 day shipping.
edit: ~~so now apparently domestic orders from $50-$79.99 are going via USPS. Orders $80 and more are shipping via FedEx 2 day. It would have been real nice of ND to have any sort of notification on the website of this change, even during check out. Had I known I would have acted accordingly and either ordered a week early (because that is likely how long USPS will take to get it to me, as they are still awaiting the items that I ordered yesterday) or chosen a different shipping option. Terrible way to handle this change. And now I will be out of what I need to help me sleep and have to wait a ~week. I feel incredibly misled when the site still clearly says free 2-3 day shipping on orders over $50.~~
edit2: I was wrong on the USPS shipping being slow. The package is out for delivery. USPS didnt update the status. I regret doubting ND. Major apologies!

Oh man that sucks. Thank you for the clarification on the matter, I understand the situation now. Apologies for my rudeness. Fucking fedex...guess they gotta give their upper management & CEO some raises and bonuses.

No worries! I get it. This whole this is frustrating all around. Who decides to give everyone the same rate, regardless of volume?!? It makes no sense to me! They lured us into their program by giving reasonable rates, then raised them twice just this year. I totally see why Amazon decided to build their own shipping organization. You can only raise costs so much before things just become unworkable.
