So when I outlined my ideal kitchen a few months ago, one of the items on my list was a John Boos hardwood chopping block, either in maple, cherry or walnut. The nicer ones retail for about $250-300, so it was a completely unfeasible purchase -- even I'm not crazy enough to spend that kind of money on a block of wood. Instead, I bought a cheaper (but still nice) bamboo model from Kershaw for $80, which is still absurdly expensive but it matches my Shun (Kershaw) knife.

And then I got an email from one of the private sample sale websites to which I belong that they were selling one of those Boos blocks for $129, over 50% off. Which is still stupidly expensive, and I'm broke and can't really afford it, but... but...

Sigh. I am weak, my friends. I am very weak.

Technically, one is a cutting board and one is a chopping block. And I'm considering returning one of them.

But... yes.
