Kate Draycott took the goods from Pets at Home, on Station Road, on February 10.
Prosecutor Neil Hollett said she was on the final days of a court order at the time, and was now on licence, following her release from a three-week prison sentence, on March 22.
He said: "She made a full and frank admission when interviewed by the police."
Draycott, 33, of Carsic Road, admitted the theft when she appeared at Mansfield Magistrates Court, on Friday.
She was given a 12 month conditional discharge, and was ordered to pay £200 compensation, which will be added to the £1,268 she already owes the court.
