Answer

In that situation, using the alternatives would change the meaning slightly.
'Obviously' means 'clearly' - i.e. it should be obvious to you that I don't want want to spend too much. Whereas using 'absolutely' and 'definitely' would mean that spending too much money is the last thing that I would consider doing.
