I didn't realize you didn't know about the caps. My first event was also at about the time I started playing and I was able to max out on treats and DC with a lot fewer treat farms, habitats and dragons. Sadly for over half the event I had no clue about how much could be collected overall or how to get there so it cost me $9.99 at the end to get my first epic dragon, a Midnight. Being a generally impatient sort, it is so hard for me to miss out on prizes. At least there is usually an opportunity later on to get them.

Some strategic planning can help. Because some of the dragons I needed had such long fails, at one point I had my cave going for just some pedestals and purposely chose those with shorter fail times to keep those eggs hatching. Just remember it won't be too much longer until you are one of the veterans and find the events easier, even if they don't get less tedious, LOL!
