Tomorrow, J.B. Sandoz Hardware Store in Opelousas will close its doors for the final time.

The store first opened in 1878, making it 141 years old.

Owners say big box stores and online retailers made it hard for the store to compete for customers.

The fifth generation store has been in three different buildings in Opelousas since its opening.

The store's hours on Saturday are 7:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.
