Help achieve Polaroid/ retro effect in photos?

I have a canon powershot SX200 IS camera and photoshop CS4 i have gone though many tutorials from deviantart.com but can not find the one to suit me
I would really like to achieve this style of colors in my photos

and (especially) this

I have some knowledge of layering and changing curves etc. so the tutorials don't have to be for complete beginners. i guess i need separate ones for each of the styles but really can't find the right ones they never turn out vibrant and don't look very professional (there not as clear and are dimmer, often have the colors and shades that make them look cheap) ....

buying a Polaroid camera is not an option for me as the paper for it is too expensive

thank you to everyone who can help

create a color balance adjustment layer then double click in the layer mask thumbnail and select 50% opacity then select the gradient tool and use the radial gradiant to drag across the pic then adjust the color balance slider into red and magenta or whatever. playing around with the gradient type and opacity should give you that kind of effect. then maybe go to filter>noise>add noise and add about 10-15%
