Is there an upper limit to indulgence?

I was going to buy something little but pleasantly useful as a birthday present for myself. I have the option to buy something really big and expensive and beautiful simply because it's available and I'd like it and at the moment I have the money.

Which way to go, which way to go...

Reading for comprehension, I cannot has it. I could do both, but I know that someone was eyeing the smaller thing as a Christmas present.

Understandable. That said, if someone is considering giving you the smaller thing as a Christmas present, that seems like a solid reason to buy the big expensive lovely thing instead. (Unless you meant that someone is eyeing the smaller thing as a Christmas present for not-you, in which case never mind.)
