Smallest plates my gym has are 1.25 kg. My ghetto version of micro-loading is to put three pairs of collars on. If successful, next session I add 2.5 kg and don't use any collars.
On Amazon, these spring collars are 6.4 ounces each (12.8 for the pair). Another pair are listed as 1 lb.
Not sure how sustainable this is, though. Seems like it may eventually be a good idea to use collars while pressing, and not use them while benching (alone).

They only have these guys, and they're pretty old and bent out of shape. I use them, but I'll have to try getting them even tighter.
I removed the twist in ones, and actually use something like this, i.e. generic spring collars (that aren't even matching) http://www.amazon.com/SPRING-COLLAR-2inch-ONE-PAIR/dp/B000BKV08U
as they are way more convenient. I assume it won't be an issue, maybe once it's 100lbs on the dumbbell it's worth considering.
I think I'm still at the point where I still think about working out too much on my off days because I use to do a bro split (gym 4-5 times a day).
