Sticky key in ignition

I am trouble getting key in ignition turning it and sometimes removing key.
It's getting worse. Has anybody else had this problem? Is a spray lubrlicant an option?
I would hate it if I was in a parking lot and couldn't get key out and would have to tow it to dealer

Please Google "stuck key north a merca motoring", there's tons of threads about this, one which I skimmed suggested dead battery.
