Quote from ftee123 :
The government couldn't get rid of all the extra inventory
"Biden officials paused the USPS program in early September over concerns that the high demand for free tests had put the administration on pace to deplete its stockpile before winter. They warned at the time the government could not afford to purchase more tests absent new funding from Congress, and needed to preserve the "limited remaining supply" for future Covid-19 surges."

Quote from the article. Plus I assume the ones from the summer expired. (Please see link in original post! Your tests' expiration dates may have been extended!)

Cool. I had no idea! I'll add this to the original post and credit you so people don't throw away tests that could be totally fine!

Thank you for this information. Everyone at my place of work has been getting covid, it's good to have the tests, and if positive get the antivirals so you don't get that sick.
