My budget right now wouldn't allow for something expensive. I did see an ad on Craigslist for a craftsman 10" table saw that was for $100. Normal sells for $280-$370 per Google. Wasn't sure if I should pull the trigger on a table saw just yet. I've read that a circular with a level stop could make-do until I start getting into some hardcore builds.
Any inexpensive options you could suggest?

Look up how to make a table saw out of a circular saw. There are plenty of videos for you to follow.

The centerpiece of every cabinet shop I've ever been in is the tablesaw. If you won't be ripping plywood that often I would say get a circular saw and a chop saw. You could probably get both for around $500. I'm partial to the wormdrive skilsaw and a DeWalt chop saw.

if you are going to be doing any type of joining of of wood along cuts that you want to look good, you need a table saw, rollers and stands to go with it
