4" washers cost about $1. They weigh 5/8 of a pound. Buy 6 of them.

I'm in the UK and haven't been able to find anything like this..

Why doesn't he take the change out of the socks and buy microplates with it?

He's saving that money. To buy a new pair of socks.

Make some out of chain.

This is what I did. I brought a meter of light chain from the local hardware store for a couple of dollars. I weighed it and found it was 510g. Chopped into two pieces and threaded some elastic through it to make two 250g weight "scrunchies". I think this is the cheapest and easiest way to make micro weights.

I'm just going to use the clips that weight .5lbs each.
