I was just noticing that Brickwise seems to be very out of date for some
things.  I was researching the price of the 3033 Blue Tub and noticed that
the prices on Brickwise were all wrong.

For example:
The price shown for KBKids is too low by $1.10.
The prices for eToys and ToysRUs\Amazon are too high by $3.00.
WalMart doesn't seem to offer that item on the web site anymore.

Is it still being updated?

Check back in about a half hour.  I'm re-running it now.  I'm having trouble
accessing certain sites, which is causing the data not be updated, and there
are no expiration or "last seen on such and such date" checks.  I think the
whole TRU thing needs to be wiped out as well because Amazon seems to be
handling all of TRU's online commerce now.  For a while I couldn't get to
www89.tru.com anymore, but now thankfully it's autoforwarding to amazon.com.
Anyway, ya, I got some stuff to fix.  Thanks for the info above.
