Depends on whether you have old or newschool frame, different seattube diameters. A lot of shims for sale are for new bikes and too big.
I found a Wald shim on Ebay that took 22.2 down to 21.1, it'd reduce your seattube diameter by ~1mm, but I noticed the seller is no longer registered.
It'll be available elsewhere though, it's a standard sized shim. It has a serial code if you need me to check it.
Edit>> I better mention the coke-can trick, you could make your own shim quite easily.

the 22.2 seatpost is about 1mm to small compared to the tube ive done the coke can but it still deosnt seem enough
