To 2" or not to 2"

Good evening everyone

I finally bit the bullet and bought a 10" Bintel dob. NOW, my troubles have been expanded. My (brilliant) scope came with three eyepieces, one 2" and one 1-1/4". My question to your collective excellence is, which way should I go? I'm really keen to get an OIII filter and also some other coloured filters but I can't afford to buy two of each (unless i win lotto tonight!). Are there any advantages or disadvantages between the two? The 2" seem to cost more but I presume that the extra cost is for the extra glass.

Any help or enlightenment on this conundrum will be much appreciated.

Gareth
