budgeting (vent/suggestions needed)

ok so DH and I have never been particularly great with our finances but we have ZERO debt, we pay our bills on time and we save whatever we can. however, we splurge more than we need to.

since finding out i was pregnant, we have had various conversations about cutting back and making changes (not eating out as much, not buying coffee on the way to work at dunkin, etc.) and it feels like i may be the only one who is really making any effort. both of our companies have coffee at work for free and we have 2 coffee pots in our kitchen. granted, after a long day at work the last thing i want to do is cook so we have been eating out a little more.

does anyone have any tips for cutting back spending? our goal is to buy a house before or right after the baby is born (our lease is up june 1st).  i have even started shopping at the dollar store for basic supplies because some of the prices are really getting ridiculous.

any help is greatly appreciated!!
