According to police the spending spree began when Kimberly Hope Ah-See, 32, found a debit card that had fallen on the floor near the checkout at Kmart about 12.30pm on February 20 this year.
Ah-See first purchased $20 worth of Optus credit within Dubbo Square with the card she'd found, before she went to Kmart and spent $109.

She then headed down to Uncle Han's takeaway and made a purchase for $20.10 before she went to Liqiorland and spent $59.
Ah-See made one last purchase at Coles for $42 before the victim began receiving notifications on her mobile about bank transactions being made, and cancelled her card.
Ah-See was captured making the purchases on the centre's CCTV footage.
Police arrested Ah-See on March 4 at her home.
In Dubbo Local Court on Wednesday, Ah-See pleaded guilty to one count of dishonestly obtaining financial advantage by deception and four counts of dishonestly obtaining property by deception.
The matter was adjourned for sentence on August 25.
