Well, pretty much all purchases enabled by the AMAZON CONTROLLED APPS....if you have the web browser enabled, and you have a bookmark to B&N or Joe's Appliances that let's you buy without a password, Amazon can't help with that.
(Although the controls can also disable the web browser.)
If your concern is not guarding against purchases by authorized users, then you can also just enable a device password, so a thief could not even wake the device up.
I uses parental controls only on my son's Fire to prevent him from accidentally spending the money in his account while exploring.
