Ikea sells a $8 tool set that includes three sizes of Pozidriv bits - and other bits that perfectly fit their various connectors. It's well worth the cost if you're planning to assemble anything you got from IKEA and not lose your mind.

They also have, or had, a circa $25 corded drill kit for sale (going by memory of briefly seeing, a year or two ago).

If someone doesn't have a drill and is contemplating purchasing and constructing a substantial piece of IKEA furniture, such as my parent's TV stand -- lots of bits to screw together. Under those circumstances, I suggest maybe they want to buy one of the drill kits.

I expect you can get a better corded drill elsewhere, and buy the relevant bits, for not much more. But, KISS, with regard to the amount of shopping to be done.

P.S. Well, what do you know. US $20, now, and cordless.

IMHO if you're getting something for infrequent use, avoid batteries as they'll just go bad when sitting around unused.
