A number of instances also took place in Seaton.
A 27-year-old woman has appeared at Aberdeen Sheriff Court in relation to a series of alleged shoplifting crimes.
The incidents happened over a 2 month period, with the individual charged with 17 instances of shop lifting.
These took place in the Tillydrone and Seaton areas of Aberdeen.
It's alleged a four figure sum of goods were stolen in total.
Constable Susie Mair said:"stealing from shops is not a victimless crime and has the consequences of pushing the loss onto the consumer.
"We actively support local businesses to make them harder targets in order to deter such instances of theft. We actively pursue those involved in thefts, with a view to enhancing community safety.
"We are acutely aware of the reasoning behind persons committing such crimes and actively signpost them to support services when needed"
