Sometimes life just nickels and dimes you to death......

I get the frustration, I've had 4 in the past couple months. Have new tires but only 3 have shown up, still waiting for the last one to show
 
I use dollar tree / flea market sticky rope plugs - I've never had one give out after doing it. My poor daughter had a few in one of her tires on her jeep before getting around to new tires - lol...

I'm hip. I used em all the time till I found out they damaged the steel belts on radials and I shredded a couple tires.
Kept a kit in the trunk, with a can of fix a flat.
Now I have the tires unmounted & patched inside. $25 vs .25 cents. :blink:

But I still use the plugs on the lawnmower. One rear tire on my last mower looked like a porcupine.
Must have had 20 plugs sticking out of it. Even a couple in the sidewalls.
 
I'm a lazy and cheap bastard... There has been a small nail stuck in the driver's side rear tire on my F150 for over about two months. Like to keep tire pressure at 36 to 38 psi. Every 2 to 3 weeks, pressure drops to about 32. I have an air compressor!
