Default Straw or hay for mulching

I am thinking about using straw or hay for mulch, but as I've never done it before, I am not sure how much I need.

I a local feed store they sell 60 lb straw bales ($13) and 92 lb alfalfa hay ($23.50). I have not shopped for better prices yet...

Do you know how many sq. feet 1 bale would cover?

Any other advice re this type of mulch is also much appreciated.

Thank you so much for your help!
