Gear that costs less than a gold piece

Sometimes I have had reason to buy gear that costs less than a gold. Torches, rations, etc... when marking these on a cert. How do you record a purchase of 3 copper or 4 or 5 silver?

Usually, if I need to buy something that costs less than 1gp, I just buy enough extras to bring the total to 1gp and then leave the extras at home. Otherwise, I've been known to just write gp in decimals. (For example, 348.72gp would be 348gp, 7sp and 2cp.)

Silver = 0.1 gold
Copper = 0.01 gold

So 3 copper = 0.03 gold

I use the Jiggy bulk method as well.

Dodgy, my non-combat mule prefers decimals though. Eventually those decimals get added to a bribe once I've carried them across too many chronicles.
