A serial shoplifter targeted the same Boots store for cosmetics seven times in less than six weeks, a court heard.
Scott Hutchinson, 29, of Cornwallis Road, Worsley Hall, appeared before Wigan justices to admit to the multiple thefts in April and May during which time around £800 worth of goods were taken.
However sentencing was adjourned until September 5 because he has denied a charge of being armed with a knife on Norfolk Street on May 22 and a trial on that matter will be held first.
