We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

I like your idea of burning the JSON data into the page -- not here since I don't fetch the additional data until I know what item you're adding to your cart. Making a request for the page layout, then a second for the data seems to be common these days. Having the data in a JavaScript variable eliminates the need for the second HTTP request without having the have two different bits of rendering code (i.e, client and server).

Oh I see your server is not advanced enough to know what the user is going to put in the cart beforehand ;).
