You already got many suggestions, my comment is more about quality.
Not every tool has to be the top of the line, but avoid junk.
A poorly made screwdriver will make a simple job more difficult and
even more costly if it damages the fasteners. For only a few more
dollars, get one with a good comfortable grip.
Pliers and wrenches should have good jaws.
What to buy depends on your needs. Home repair is a bit different
that auto tinkering, but screwdrivers are needed fro both. Hammer
styles will differ, but again, get a decent one with a comfy grip.
