I have patched with electrical tape before, without glue. Worked OK on a low pressure mountain bike tire as long as the hole in on the outside and the tire can hold the tape in place. Doesn't work on high pressure though.

I also pad out my nashbar orders with patch kits. The glueless patches are worthless IMHO.
