The best cement is Portland Cement and it generally sells for about $10.00 a bag. ( there is about 90 pounds in a bag) The best mixture for cement. You need sand, gravel, and bags of cement. Mix 3 parts gravel, 2 parts sand, 1 part cement and water, until you have the consistancy of cake batter.
70 pounds for about $5 in the town i live in, Arkansas.
they come in 80 pound bags and you might be looking anywhere from 8 bucks to 15 depending where you live.
a 60 pound bag in louisiana usually cost 10 dollers. but there are so many types of cement.
A 12 X 8 is pretty big size, 96 square feet. If you want to use the bags, then on the bag it will tell you how many square feet it would cover. You would need at least 4 boards to build your frame, and then either re-bar or wire panels. The panels would be about $10.00 each. If it were me, I would build the frame and then call redy-mix company to come and pour the cement.
