At Least I Found My Yarn Stash

I have some questions for the crafty members of tqc. So, back in the 90s I learned to crochet, but never really did much. Fast forward to a few weeks ago and I started getting the itch to take it up again, so I dug out my crochet stuff. So, now I have a bunch of yarn, a mostly finished scarf(I think), a learn to crochet book, and one crochet hook (size K).

So, what else do I need?
What's a complete waste of money?
Any brands of hooks you'd recommend? Or are they all kind of the same?
If you can't get to a craft store, where's a good place to find yarn? (I'd rather buy it in person than online so I can see how it feels.)
