Lots of us have had this problem before. As stated by others, I always:
  1. Replace the tube, but also find the hole in the old one and patch it to use as a spare.
  2. Replace your rim-tape. Cheap and easy fix for lots of flats.
  3. Scrub the inside of your tire with your fingernails, to see if you can find anything sharp in there. Even if you don't, it may be a good idea to really scrub the inside out with a nylon scrubby-pad to knock off any sharp things you missed.
It is what I do, when I start having multiple flats, and it has not failed yet.

Have fun out there!
