How sure are you?  On the system I'm looking at right now, any user can 
write to:

/dev/mqueue
/dev/shm
/run/user/<uid>
/run/screen/S-<user>
/var/spool/samba
/home/<user>
/tmp
/var/tmp

Notably, the "screen" and "samba" locations only appear when the 
respective packages are installed, so the places users can write may 
vary from system to system.
