Hell, he probably wouldn't even have known when the day was selected if the party would be in town or out in the field.  Players often dither around in town, or pass through in the blink of an eye and the DM can't know which until it happens.I do, though, so I know it can easily be done. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤷‍♂️" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f937-2642.png" title="Man shrugging    :man_shrugging:" data-shortname=":man_shrugging:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" /></blockquote>
