This can be done when two sentences are part of the same idea and work better if they flow together:

I saw a man in the supermarket, and he put a bag of chips under his coat.

If you break them up, you introduce a pause and change the flow:

I saw a man in the supermarket. He put a bag of chips under his coat.

You may also use a semicolon when combining sentences if they are related or contrasting ideas, and they work together better without the break of a new sentence:

I frequently go to the supermarket to pick up things when I run out of them or to try something new when I have a free minute; I never really go there to stock up or buy things on sale.
