php select options in different steps

VERY basic question: I currently have the following (array?) for a select box within a form but I need to change the jump/step in numbers that appear in the drop down. At the moment it is in multiples of 100, from 300-1500 but I need multiples of 100 up to 1000 and then 1250 and 1500.

for($i = 300; $i <= 1500; $i += 100)

$step = 100;
for($i = 300; $i <= 1500; $i += $step){
if ($i >= 1000) {$step = 250}...

or

$inc = 100; 
foreach (range(300, 1500, $inc) as $number) 
{ 
echo "<Option>".$number."</Option>"; 
if  ($number >= 1000){$inc = 250} 
}

but i am not 100% sure if the second one works

Just add the options from 100 to 1000 with a for loop and then add the other two options afterwards.

<select>
    <?php
        for($i = 100; $i <= 1000; $i+=100)
        {
            echo "<option>" . $i . "</option>";
        }
    ?>
    <option>1250</option>
    <option>1500</option>
</select>

Have you tried using the function range() ? You can configure start, end, and step.
