Police arrested the woman on Friday.
In both robberies the woman was seen hiding items before leaving the stores without paying.
Police were called and spoke with the woman who at first gave them a false name when questioned.
She will be appearing before Nowra Local Court at a future date.
In another robbery, at 6pm on Saturday a customer of Coles at Vincentia had her purse removed from her handbag while it was in her shopping trolley.
Police are reminding shoppers to keep their personal items on them.
“Leaving your personal items, especially wallets and bags, can become a target for others to take, especially when left within a shopping trolley when you are distracted by buying groceries,” said Inspector Susan Charman-Horton.
