One of the following (that I have had to do - with tubeless tires)
	a) ride home on the flat (easier if its a rear wheel flat)
	   not recommended, but ok for cheap bike and short distances
	b) remove tire, leave the bike on blocks, hitch or walk home
	   or to cycle shop with the tire in hand, get it repaired/replaced
	   hitch/walk/ride back and replace
	c) luckily riding with a friend who takes your tire directly to
	   the shop for you and has it repaired while you wait with
	   your disabled bike (helps to have tire irons with you).

others ?
