Madwi makes great points. But if you're not ready to throw down the cash on Snap-On and such, consider tools from places like Harbor Freight or Northern Tool. They certainly aren't the best tools, but for the price the quality is quite good. I started with that stuff and have been gradually replacing the tools I use most with higher quality stuff either purchasing myself or asking for tools or gift cards for bday/xmas gifts.

Shopvacs are handy, and you don't need to spend a lot on one. I think I paid $30 on sale for a cheap one at Lowe's and it's still running like a champ 8 years later
