"I'd like you to lend me some money"
Etymology is from the cartoon "Popeye", where the character Wimpy would frequently utter this phrase. He was a glutton, and would consume burgers at a ferocious rate but could rarely pay for his habit.
The phrase implies the underlying feeling that the person will unlikely actually pay for the hamburger (or whatever) on Tuesday (or ever, for that matter.
I told my bank that I'd gladly 'pay them tuesday for a hamburger today' to buy that new sportscar, but they wouldn't approve me.

From Popeye cartoons. Line often uttered by Popeye's portly friend Wimpy. Of course, "Tuesday" would never come, and so Wimpy constantly secured himself a free lunch. Thus the line is used to jokingly indicate that one would like to "borrow" something without any real intention of ever paying you back.
At the movies:
Bob: Aw man, I forgot my wallet! Hey Joe, I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a movie ticket today...?
Joe: Yeah whatever...I'll buy your sorry ass another movie ticket just shut up.

A phrase common to New York city, implying that one will pay another back for a hamburger on the next tuesday, or any tuesday, in exchange for the hamburger on the day he is asking for it. This phrase is only implying that the hamburger will be paid back for however, and is taken advantage of by bad people, leaving the people who actually wish to pay back the money looked at as untrustworthy.
"I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" said the snyde looking man. When the cashier heard this, he shot the man and took all his money.
