Helen, 34, was wearing loose-fitting pink PJ bottoms and a pair of black mules and she had her blonde hair tied in a top knot with scrunchie.
She also kept off the chill with a long padded coat as she nipped into the shop in Bolton to pick up some essentials.
Last week, Helen appeared at Wirral Magistrates Court after being convicted of failing to provide documents over speeding offences.
The mum-of-three was banned from driving after blaming her boyfriend when her Audi was clocked speeding twice in 16 days.

Helen, who played Rosie Webster in Corrie, was handed a six-month driving ban and fined £3,000 in total.
She was also ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £800 and prosecution costs totalling £110.
JPs heard on the first occasion, Helen’s £66,000 Audi Q7 was clocked going 42mph in a 30mph zone at around 1.16pm on July 10.
On July 26, the car was travelling at 51mph in a 40mph zone near to junction six of the M57 at 11.16am.
Helen, who already had six points on her licence, did not subsequently respond to intended notices of prosecution.
She told the court where she lives with her three children is “very remote” and she would struggle without a driving licence.

The actress shares Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three with ex-fiancé and Bristol Rovers player, Scott Sinclair.
Helen claimed she is “really struggling at the moment financially” and can only afford to pay her tax and VAT.
She added: “My job really is being a mummy at home. Their dad works away. I earn money on social media, but it kind of varies really what I earn. I used to earn quite well from it but I haven’t done so well the past year.
Helen told the court her boyfriend Robbie Talbot, who has played for Morecambe and Burton Albion, was driving at the time.
When asked about receiving the intended notices of prosecution, she said: “I was really really angry. I said you need to reply, this is really important.
“I very stupidly and naively thought it was acceptable for my boyfriend to reply and explain to the police that it was him that was driving. It wasn’t me. My boyfriend was the one that was driving, it wasn’t me.”
Following her court hearing, Helen took to her Instagram story as she shared a post by podcast presenter Bryony Gordon.
It showed a picturesque view of a sunset beach landscape as the waves hit the shoreline.
The words emblazoned on the image read: “This too shall pass.”
Adding: “But what the f***?”
