I made an Intelligent item that can cast a 7th level spell at will thanks to purpose, and I chose that spell to be Limited Wish. [This is more of a thought experiment, so no GM to ask]. The spell takes 1 standard action, which I figure is fine. My question is really, does At Will negate casting cost? Would my Intelligent Scythe have to crack out his casting pouch and pay 2.5k in diamonds every time it wanted to cast it's "at will" spell?

An intelligent item that can cast limited wish (or ANY spell that uses a costly component) at will is VERY powerful. Mostly because it DOES bypass the material component cost; that cost is basically absorbed by the cost of the item itself. An at will limited wish effect would basically categorize the item as an artifact, as it's essentially priceless.
