cowboy:lets go have a drink
Nika; i want to but i dont have money
cowboy: dont worry i'll shout you.
Nika:o.k lets go.

Yes, we say it a lot here in Australia (because we drink a lot? haha).
You can also say, "I'll shout you" or "I'll shout this one".

It means "it's my treat".

roi_g's answer is correct. It means "It's my turn to pay". Just to add though - you'll only find that phrase in England or Australia, not in the U.S.
