Mortgage Rates - what to do?

I know its all a gamble, but we are set to refinance our house with a mortgage lender and I was of course quoted a great rate three weeks ago, when rates were low - we never locked in at that time (is that usual when you start the process with them). Anyway, regardless we are where we are - so now I can either wait it out a few more weeks or lock in now at 4. Our current mtg. is 4.875. I just can't decide whetehr to wait it out a little longer and hope there's another dip or lock tomorrow in case rates drastically go up again?

Mortgage Rates - what to do?

I would go to a credit union - we just closed on our refinance with a 3.5% rate.

We never locked either and our rate actually went down to 3.5%.
