Circular Saw size

Okay, so I'm absolutely a beginner and have zero tools...scratch that, I do have a drill. I have been looking at circular saws, however, I have noticed that they come in all different sized blades... What size should I get as a beginner, but that I can also transition into as a bit more experienced??? Thanks to any and all help!

7 1/4 inch is the most common blade size for circular saws. Since these saws are the most common, you will be able to find a wider selection of blades and they will cost less than other types of blades. If I were to have one size saw, I would get a 7 1/4" corded saw.
