You cannot send multiple responses. You send an object that contains your array and total price:

res.json({
    items: cart.generateArray(),
    totalPrice: cart.totalPrice
});

Another option would be to make two different requests if you need two responses.

FWIW, I used Andy's explanation to do res.json({responseObjects: myArrayOfJSONObjects}) in an Express.JS and Node.JS configuration. Worked perfectly!
