Respect the innocent comma

A tall woman, in her early thirties, was walking back from the shop, a blue plastic bag swinging in her hand, humming as she trotted along the pavement. As she was walking, the hairs on the back of her neck rose, leaving a tingling feeling down her spine. She ignored it and carried on walking, though her pace had slowed. She frowned as she thought she heard a whining noise. Still, she didn’t stop, she was almost back to her house and so she kept going. She did stop altogether though, when she heard the noise again.

Jeez! This person is almost as bad as Captain Carrot when it comes to comma abuse. Ten in a paragraph of six sentences. I don't know whether to go on and hope that the punctuation improves, or hit the back button as quickly as possible.
