How about using spot or multispot metering - which is probably more acurate 
anyway - 
then activate the memo function to lock the exposure - no wasted exposure.

Or, if you really want centre weighted, switch to manual, meter, recompose and 
shoot.

That's two ways of locking the exposure without wasting film and if it wasn't 
for 
the off-composition requirement you would have three ways to lock the exposure.

Come on, how many ways do you want?
