Most guides I've seen recommend putting all of your stones into capacity in the early game if you're not going to buy stones with real money. Rolling on the REM isn't particularly useful when your team cost is too low to be able to actually use the monsters you pull.
Whether or not to use stones on continues and stamina refills is a contentious point among non-IAP players. It's generally considered that stamina refills are a better choice than continues if a refill would let you run the dungeon more than once (i.e. if you have 50 stamina and you're running a 50-stamina dungeon, a continue is better, but if you're running a 15-stamina dungeon, a refill is better). And it's generally considered better to not continue or refill at all if there's no time pressure and you can just refill your stamina with time.
My personal opinion: A continue is only worth it if it's going to yield you a monster that's going to be more useful to you than spending the stone on a REM pull, and you've got a very high probability of the monster dropping (at least 40%, less than that is definitely not worth it) and if you can't just retry the dungeon when you have enough stamina (e.g. if you won't refill before the dungeon closes, or if you need the specific ally leader, or if the dungeon is difficult enough that you wouldn't be able to beat it without a continue anyway). In that scenario, it is DEFINITELY worth it -- I'd much rather spend 5 stones on continues for a guaranteed or near-guaranteed shot at a powerful descended monster than I would spend it on a REM pull that might land me yet another Ice Golem.
