I agree with Doug, get use to the ones you already have then when you feel ready to upgrade. You will know which eyepiece(s) are the best for you and your scope.
The only time I use a Barlow is when I am imaging the planets. Unless the seeing is really good the Barlow is hardly is used. I suggest to not worry too much about a Barlow just yet.

Lucky you!! All I got was a 10x and a 25x. The main reason I was looking at the kit is individual prices from the NG shop (for standard sizes) are still around $75-80, but I think I can get the whole kit with filters for just under $200.00, which seems good value. The 2 I have are great, but I would dearly love to get close up to the planets.
