Yeah, go to a store - you really want it plugged with one of the
"mushroom plugs" that you need to get the tyre taken off the rim to
fit... Should only cost you 20 or 30 bucks...

Depends on the size of the puncture and where it's physically located.
Sidewall punctures cannot be repaired. I've had a few punctures plugged
where they're on the tread, or replaced if the tyre is wearing down.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
