Everyone gets bombarded with advice to wait for a discount which is solid but I am guessing everyone has paid full price for something or other .

I paid full gems for ....

Cheap low end companions like Hyde and Ma Boo and Fans .
I bought a Whisper elf for full price .
1 Swop House
1 Radiant field
One of the Islands

I've bought tons of stuff at full price. Way back when, they didn't have sales very often, so the 'wait for a sale' or 'wait for the appropriate daily deal' wasn't something I ever considered. Then, last year during the hiatus, I pretty much acquired everything I was still missing through grand prizes in the well and daily deals. After that, I had so many gems that I now buy whatever new thing is released as soon as it is released, just for the fun of it.

I paid 1500 gems for Frosted Food Fight recently because I was bored. If my few remaining alts appeared for purchase (currently waiting for a wishing well event), I'd probably spring for them too to give me some quests.

Well, I bought all the giant, mini and alter ego houses because I never saw them on sale but with our lack of updates lately, they seem to have introduced the rotating round of discounts on those
I have yet to see a discount on the gateway houses (dark, light) so I have bought one and am 1205 out of 1500 there on the other

Swap House I have seen on sale though a few times, I was just holding out til I got my companions done

I would say the following....
Diggs, oddball decorations (Christmas Tree, Easter Egg Baskets, etc), a particular skylander house

I would have said aquarium and windmill but those were on sale a month or two ago a few times. Don't know if they will do that again.

I have purchased Shrines at full price, back when I had less than 3, and there was a quest to win one. I have also bought some companion / alter ego houses when they would only show up for a limited time. Otherwise I always wait for deals.

I accidentally spent 300 gems on Rubble Rouser when I was trying to select a Skylander I already got. But on the bright side, I needed an Earth Swapper and I couldn't toy link them as I never owned their toys.

I also bought some of the islands at full price because I was too impatient to wait for the sales.

I would buy some full price, but would get gems back when I got the figure and use those gems to get more, and repeat, or wait for sales.
