In the meantime, if you don’t have some already, I highly recommend getting some binoculars! They’re a great and inexpensive way to explore the sky in greater detail (much better quality option here). They won’t show you Saturn’s rings, but even from a city they allow you to see Jupiter’s four brightest moons, craters on our moon, hundreds of stars & satellites invisible to the naked eye, Venus’ crescent phase, Uranus, Neptune, etc. From darker skies you can see even more of course, like the Andromeda galaxy, Orion Nebula, awesome star clusters like the Pleiades, comets (when applicable- like right now) etc. Plus, they're great for daytime views and they’ll still be incredibly useful if/when you have a telescope.
