LAFAYETTE, La. (KPEL News) - It appears we will soon see the last of Sears in Louisiana as the company is set to shut down its Lafayette Home & Life store, one of only two like it in the country. It's been a relatively rapid exit for Sears, an iconic brand that has been closing down stores across Louisiana and the country over the last decade amid bankruptcy filings. In 2017...

The old Sears building at the Acadiana Mall in Lafayette has been sold to a developer and it will be renovated and turned into a climate-controlled self-storage facility.

Once the chain store that beat all chain stores and an icon in the shopping world, Sears is finding it impossible to keep up with modern times and has deteriorated becoming only a caricature of its once dominant self.

A wiring issue could create a burn hazard for unsuspecting users.

Lafayette is one of only three cities that are getting a new store concept from Sears, and it opens this Memorial Day Weekend.

Liquidation sales could begin by the middle of the month and at least one of the stores will be shuttered by early September.

A part big part of your childhood years is coming back.
