The last time my ignition switch went out it did exactly the same thing. I was 10 miles from home and couldn't start the car. I was able to push start it and when I got home it worked fine. I had a spare switch on hand already, so I didn't have to go out and buy one. I bought two more spares, just like you are doing, and keep one in the tool kit in the car just in case it goes out again when I am away from the house. I made a small screw driver for the set screws that is kept with the spare switch in the car. Once you have changed out the switch, the next time is a lot easier to do.
