I think the word spree also suggests a sense of pleasure, because it's a bit like 'glee'.
But I would like it to be used for other things. I'd like to go on a exasperation spree, just shrugging and rolling my eyes at everything. Or a honey spree, where I'd... eat lots of honey.
The trouble is that sprees are often stigmatised as being frivolous and excessive. Buying one pair of shoes is ok. Killing a couple of pensioners as part of a bungled insurance fraud scam is ok. But multiple purchases/deaths is a spree, and thus to be frowned upon.
"Try and show some restraint".
