The times I traveled with a 4 oz bottle (prior to the ziplock carnival but post 8/10), the screeners usually just ignored it. Now that it has to be "declared," I've been hassled several times and given the, "Well, THIS time, we'll let it pass," speech. So I've gone to a different brand in a sample pack in a 2.75 oz size, and dump it in the Freedom Baggie.
