I've noticed that my plan to save any new islands (summon and not clear) it once they are added was extremely beneficial the past two events.

I think on the eleventh standard island that if only five obstacles were cleared each day of Whitbee's Candy Bash and in the Season of Goodies there were exactly enough for every day of the two events.

This was a huge help with 10 event currency per day or 20 on double days.

For that strategy it is about patience and resisting any urge to clear for space.

I know numerous people who were able to get Goody's Treatery and Dragonsai Bush without spending real money though by playing to the max on habitat and treat collection, as well as finding Sandakloz four times a day, using gems at least some of the days (probably at least half), and performing the other tasks.

Some of it depends on strategy and if approximately 40 minutes to an hour per day can be allotted to cycling Dragon Snaps.
