I've got Craftsman for most equipment at home (sawzall, impact driver, hammer drill, flashlight, brushless circular saw) on sale. First four tools came in a bag with 2 batteries, 1 charger for $200 almost 3 years ago at Lowe's. I feel the quality is great for small house work.

If you have Dewalt already, stick to it. Save money on batteries/chargers. Never hurts to have quality power tools even if you don't use them as often.

Another available option is to stick one major system for batteries and chargers, and use battery adapters to convert other brand tools to those batteries.

You have to be careful doing this to make sure the battery is compatible and where the circuit protection is located. But it may allow you to buy a Ryobi tool at a cheaper cost (or even not available) and use the DeWalt battery. You just need to manage the battery power when doing so.
