If you want to quickly enter the dates so that you have 3 of the same date then increment by one day, this formula will do that. It assumes the dates to actually start in A3 and go down the column. A date preceding the actual start date by 1 day is entered in A2.
Enter this in A3 and fill down and format as a date.
Formula: copy to clipboard
=IF(MOD(ROW(),3)=0,MAX(A$1:$A2)+1,A2)
