Automatically? I'm pretty sure it's not possible.

But you can schedule them yourself. What I do in a similar situation is
make one regular transaction for $8.37, then create a scheduled
transaction of $8.33 a month for 11 months. That way I don't have to
remember to do $8.34 in some months and $8.33 in other months.
