Dear Alma
ALL these standing orders are great and can help you achieve a specific objective. It all boils back to what you would like to accomplish whether short term or long term in your SFI business. I suggest you decide on what your monthly budget is going to be and come up with a good strategy to work with.
In addressing this question I think the word "Best and Why" depends from one individual to another.
What is your Objective for that particular month and what do you want to achieve through the IAHBE/S-Builder or TCredits?
IAHBE- Is an International Association of Home-Business Entrepreneurs
An organization that champions the home-business lifestyle and provides its members with a multitude of resources designed to achieve maximum home-business success.
You only need to spend $29 per month on standing order or $32.95 without to get access to this great multitude of resources. Purchasing the IAHBE on SO not only helps you save but also immediately gives you 1500 VP which qualifies you to become an EA(Executive Affiliate)
Here's more about what you get with an IAHBE subscription:

So if you are looking at growing your knowledge base on Internet marketing while retaining your EA status at the same time look no further than IAHBE.
S-Builder
S-Builder is the new, international, multi-channel advertising co-op available to all SFI affiliates, giving us the ability to accelerate our path to success by purchasing shares.Units or shares of S-Builder cost as little as $22. That means that for just 72 cents a day, you can be building a residual income stream for you and your family. Indeed, S-Builder is one of most economical ways to build an online business ever!
The great benefit of this co-op is that it allows persons of even modest means to participate in large-scale advertising campaigns and share in the results without a significant investment. As compared to IAHBE the S-Builder only gives you 280 VP.

TCredits
By SFI's glossary definition, TCredits are units you purchase at TripleClicks.com and use to list and sell stuff you no longer need for cash at TripleClicks.
A special standing order of a 125 pak of TCredits costs $36.25 and $52.50 without at TripleClicks
You also get automatic 1500 VP and re-qualification as an EA. The SO helps you save lots of $$ monthly and that's a wise thing indeed.
As you already may know TCredits allow you to take FULL advantage of your TripleClicks member benefit
You can use TCredits for:
1.Bidding on Pricebendersâ„¢ Auctions,
2.For downloading TripleClicks Music
3.Listing your unwanted items for sale at TripleClicks.com and convert them into cash- one TCredit per listing
4.Redeem your TCredits on any of over 100,000 products at TripleClicks.
5.Use as rewards for hard-working affiliates in your team (transfer TCredits via your Genealogy).
6.Offer free TCredits to attract new TC members and earn lifetime commissions on their purchases.
7.Use as contest prizes on your Leadership Page.
So if you are looking to achieve your EA status, bid in the auctions, list Items, redeem products etc then TCredits is the way to go.
In Conclusion, like I previously stated. It all boils back to your Individual most pressing goal or objective for any given month. You could even purchase two SO's or three if you like. The choice is really up to you. Weigh the benefits,compare prices and match them with your goals and objectives and decide.
