I've had good success with plugs. I have had some start to leak after being in for a while, but it's always been a very slow leak, not a sudden loss of air. A lot depends on the location and shape of the puncture. But if it's a cut, plugging may not be the best choice, but then a patch may not fix it either.
You say the tire shops won't fix a tire over 5 years old? I could see age being a factor if it's showing cracks, but 5 years is not old IMHO.
I've had problems with chain store tire shops. Seems their employees work on commission, get paid to sell tires, are under pressure to meet sales quotas, etc. Nothing in it for them to do repairs other than putting themselves in the cross hairs of the lawyers!
I only go to mom & pop tire stores now. Get better service, honest service, personal service! The money stays here instead of going to corporate to finance annoying TV commercials!
