When my rear derailers have started to chirp, it has nearly always been dry pulleys, but usually when the derailer is stretched onto larger cogs while on the large chainring. Dave has the right idea, hang the bike so you can observe. Then eliminate one variable after another until the chirp is found. Or, support your LBS. Of course you lose BOB-ish points that way (as in BobD who said "you shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you").
