The friendly tyre shop will simple remove the offending article and insert a "plug" and will be all good!
Too easy

ohh thats not to bad then and im guessing i should use the spare car instead of mine
Depends on how long that screw is, it may not have penetrated the tyre carcas. Are you losing tyre pressure?

You can still drive on it if you have to just dont take the screw out, thats when youll lose air pressure.
