To tell someone that what they want isn't going to happen. The concept of pounding sand is to do something pretty useless. You can hit sand all day long, it doesn't change at all. So by telling someone to "pound sand" you are telling them that they will never get their request.
The debt collecter threatened me but I told him to pound sand, that he wasn't going to get another dime out of me.
