brakes!! What to buy?

So my red Brake warning light just came on, and it looks like my rear pads are wiped out!

I hadnt really budgeted buying an expensive set of brakes right now, so I was wondering if I could get some guidence on what to buy? Normal parts store brake pads work fine and turning the rotors ( no scarring on the rotors). Another option I see is ebay has some "sets" of brake pads and drilled/slotted rotors for pretty cheap but Im unsure how good the brake pads perform in those sets.

I kind of want to get the drilled rotors for the look, Im leaning towards just buying rotors from there, and sourcing a performance set of brake pads from a reputable name like carbotech or EBC etc.
