    I've heard it several times. The funny thing is I've never seen it happen.

    I've heard that. A ton of people say that to me and I don't know why.

    I usually just take their shirts.

    They benefit.

    It means that they would do anything for you.

    The expression comes - I believe - from the old days of Pawn Shops, where people would even pawn their clothes.

    Hence - they would even pawn their clothes for you.
