What does the term 'thanks but no thanks' mean?

Question:

Answers:
it means you're thankfull for an offer, but have no intension of taking it....

Example: You're hungry and cant be bothered to go and get some food, a collegue (that you dont particularly like!) offers to share their bland, yucky sandwich with you, so you say "Thanks, but no thanks"....
Well it means thanks for the offer but I would rather do without. I think that it means... " thanks for offering, but no thank you, I do not want any"


Thanks for offering, but no thank you I won't accept.


Thanks for the "offer" but NO.


No thankyou.


thanks for the cheese cake, but i won't eat it.. get that thing off my face now!


This means someone makes you an offer but you say "thanks but no thanks" as in thank you for the offer but I am not going to take it. Eg someone offers you a drink but you say "thanks but no thanks" maybe because you arent thirsty or whatever the reason is.


Polite way to say no. Thank you for giving me the chance to see another country Iraq, but no thanks think there are better thing to die for.


What makes you think I want anything you may offer me?
Keep your defects for yourself.
If I really needed that You wouldn't have offered.
I wouldn't take anything from You if you were the last person in
the world.
Keep it ,you need it more than I do. it means THANK YOU for the offer, BUT NO (am not accepting it)... again, THANK YOU.


It's a very polite rejection.

it means thank you for offering me something, but i choose not to accept your offer.


The other members may be right. But someone may say thanks but no thanks because they're taking their "thanks" back because they're an a*s.


It means " Thank you for offerin, but no thank, I don't want any."
