Wow, I didn't know that mapquest was even still a thing. Thank you!
Mapquest will optimize for up to 26 stops, but it seems that they are trying to transition to getting people onto a paid service.

Oh boo. I'll have to try to signup before it's all paid. Thanks!
Road Warrior is free for routes up to 8 stops. You can even add how long each stop should take.
I use the paid ($9.99/mo) version and love it. Allows me up to 125 stops. Haven't been able to find one that I like when my routes have more than 125, but with Marathon gone for the moment I have no need for more.@yoya301 wrote:

I subscribe to Everlance. It's pretty good, though it doesn't always pick up trips. I've gotten in the habit of manually starting each mystery shopping or rideshare route.

125? *faints*
I don't generally do massive routes (maybe 10 would be the max). I set the trip meter in my car when I head out and either write down my starting mileage or take a pic of it. Even using the mapping tools, sometimes there's a detour or something and my mileage always seems to be off from the maps (both google and mapquest). I learned my lesson the hard way last year with not keeping up with mileage, so I've been more diligent about it this year.

I've done a route of more than 200 several times... usually would take me about 5 days.

Okay, I only plan out one day at time!
But 40 shops a day seems kind of impossible. Are these regualr shops or something else?

Ooh, taking a picture. Love that. Can't be much easier.
