I have been giving them a number and I hope it's not too high for the market. I wanted to go a little high since I really got screwed on my last job. Some people at my old job were making $5 an hour more than me and I know I was more skilled and qualified. I don't want to make the same mistake again, but I also hope that I'm not so high that I don't get a call for an interview.

Give a range that you are OK with, and tell them it's negotiable depending on job responsibilities and opportunities, and benefits.

I would also go for negotiable, that way once you get the interview you can deal with that. You may want to consider asking what the market rate is, and trying to convince your potential employer why you are better than average!
Good luck to you!

just lie to them and say that salary isn't important but a reasonable range would be $xx - $yy per year. Make sure that $yy is much less than what you expect. Also say that you are more interested in making an excellent contribution to the company rather than the check... also a lie. It works though.
