@tfed I use "at". It's available in every distro. Its usage is easy:echo "notify-send 'Remember the milk" | at 20:00

@tfed I also sometimes use an alarm sound (thanks to mpg123 which is preinstalled in most distros) just in case I'm not in front of the computer:echo "mpg123 alarm-sound.mp3 && notify-send 'Remember the milk'" | at 20:00
