Welcome to the site. I recently rediscovered how much there is to see using just your binos. It's also excellent practice for you since you'll have a general idea where things are once you get a scope.
I'd suggest that you head over to Skymaps.com and download their sky map. On the back it should have a list of objects that can be easily seen with binoculars. It's great fun tracking them down... most of them should still be visible (if faintly) even with a full moon.
