I never carried spare tubes for the longest time. I didn't think that the time it takes to find and patch the hole was worth the bulk of an extra tube, especially using the self adhesive patches. You'll want some tire levers too.

After finally giving CO2 a try I carried a spare tube around for a while. Pretty quick to throw a new tube on and worry about patching it later at home. Now I vary between carrying an extra tube or not, but I still carry a hand pump in addition to the CO2.

I carry a small multitool for adjustments as well. It's a small ratcheting set that has proved useful more often for things other than the bike!

Got your lights all set up? You may want to consider an extra battery as well, or a charger to keep at work if it's a charging light.

For the seams, maybe try an iron, like you see the MYOGers use to shorten inflatable sleeping pads? E.g.

These patch kits are marketed for bike inner tubes, but they’re the same material that Therm-a-Rest gives you as a patch when you buy a NeoAir, they’re just smaller.

Definitely do a careful inspection of the entire tire looking for a foreign object. Different tires can make a huge difference in flat resilience.

Durability and flat resilience is super important to me on my commuter bike. I had a similar rash of flats a couple of years ago and then swapped to Continental Gatorskins and have not had a puncture flat on that bike in three years. They are quick, but can feel a little sketchy in wet conditions.

I run Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tour on my touring bike and have put more than 10,000 km on them through Patagonia and South East Asia on a heavily loaded touring bike with only one flat. They are great all weather and terrain tires, but not particularly fast.

I have used these patches and they are easy to use and very reliable.
