Default b16a spark plug thread stripped!!!

Well the other day i was driving when i downshifted on this long empty freeway, all of a sudden my 2nd cylinder the spark plug came off. I then realized that the threads that hold the spark plug inside the block has been stripped and want hold the spark plug! So any suggestions on what i could do would be appreciated ....im short on cash and i absolutely need my car. thx
