Do it like the pros.
Rod chairs (sometimes go by other names) made of plastic or metal, allow
the bar to sit above the ground. Cost is minimal. They can be obtained from
your concrete supplier or from Lowes or Home Depot.
The three inch number is not critical. Building inspectors don't really
care if it is 2 or 3 inches.

I have never worked with rebar or concrete but it seem fairly strait
forward in building the cage and pouring the concrete. I have read the the
rebar cannot be with in 3" of the dirt or it will rust and fall apart. What
do you do in the bottom where the rebar sits on the dirt? Is this just a
sacrificial bit?
