Having only 1 exhaust fan isn't the end of the world if your case doesn't have super hot components. It provides pretty decent cooling.

Here is a list of all fans, sorted by price, on PCpartpicker that are 120 and 140 size. your case can support up to 2 140's or 3 120's in the front if you want. You don't need that many though.

Corsair is too expensive. I would prefer to keep it under $10.

This fan would work fine for you:

(I own one, and its pretty good for under $10)

Would you recommend just going with one exhaust?

If you don't have super hot components, and you don't have the budget to throw at fans, then it won't really make any difference. Maybe  a few degrees. But no, you don't need it.
