Eyewitnesses told the outlet that Bynes, 37, was alone and appeared to be in good spirits.
The “What a Girl Wants” star was then seen leaving a Ralphs supermarket with a bag full of groceries on Saturday afternoon, wearing a white tee, blue jeans and a rain jacket.
Sources revealed to the site that Bynes has graduated to her treatment center’s minimal supervision group, meaning she is permitted to leave the property at certain hours to take time for herself and enjoy activities like shopping or going for a stroll.
While the “Amanda Show” star is doing well enough to be allowed off the premises, the insiders said she is still planning to stay at the facility for the foreseeable future as she continues to get her mental health in check.
Bynes reportedly enjoys having medical staff, therapists and other patients around her, which allows for some socialization as opposed to being isolated in her apartment.
The former child star, who has bipolar disorder, was placed on a psychiatric hold in March after roaming the streets of Los Angeles naked.
An eyewitness claimed at the time that Bynes had flagged down a car and told the driver she was coming down from a psychiatric episode.
The “She’s the Man” star then called the police on herself and was subsequently taken to a nearby station, where a mental health expert determined she needed to be hospitalized.
Bynes remained in the mental health facility for three weeks before being released, but she was detained by cops and placed back on a psychiatric hold in June after being deemed a danger to herself and those around her.
Two weeks later, she was able to check out of the facility, having made strides with her mental health.
However, in late July, reports surfaced that the “What I Like About You” star checked herself back into another center amid her ongoing struggles.
She was apparently seeking a more “therapeutic” environment than the previous outpatient program, which had allowed her to seek treatment while living at home.
Bynes’ ex-fiancé Paul Michael claimed to Page Six exclusively in March that the “All That” alum had been “off her meds” when she had her nude psychiatric episode.

The on-again, off-again couple called off their engagement in July 2022 — months after Bynes publicly accused Michael of watching “mom-and-son porn” and using crack cocaine.
The “Easy A” star later clarified that she had only caught her then-fiancé watching “MILF” porn, but insisted that he had relapsed despite him providing a clean drug test.
Bynes enrolled in cosmetology school last October with plans to become a manicurist. It remains unclear whether she will continue to pursue the profession amid her mental health woes.
Her rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
