glad-handout

Where someone eagerly/effusively greets you in a super-jovial "hearty handshake" manner merely to hopefully put you more in the mood to give him a loan or ride or other gratuity that he doesn't deserve and probably will not be able/willing to pay you back for.

In one of the classic Burns & Allen shows, Gracie laughingly reads over some old love-letters from George, which are in poetry-form and are invariably glad-handouts, as in, "I love you lots, I love you plenty; I love you true, send me twenty!"
