Outside, like: The car was John's, so he had to pay for the repairs. However, if you are using the apostrophes as single quotation marks, then inside. Commas and periods always go inside quotation marks. "Like this."

Do commas go inside quotations marks?

British style places commas and periods that are not part of the quoted material outside of the quotation marks.

Placing commas and periods inside the quotes implies that they are part of the string to be displayed.


Do commas go inside or outside of quotation marks?

With NO exceptions, periods and commas go INSIDE the quotation marks. However, question marks (if the question comes at the end of the sentence) are put following the clause with the quotation marks outside the question mark. If there are two clauses within the sentence separated by a conjunction, and there is a semi colon required, the semi colon at the end of the first clause goes outside the quotation marks.
