Basically, to grab values from the cart, use this sort of loop:

    my $cart = $Carts->{main};
    foreach my $item (@$cart){
        # $item->{code} is the sku
        # $item->{quantity} is the qty
    }

So, stripping down the above example, you can push all the SKU
values into one array using the following two lines of Perl code:

    my @out;
    push(@out,$_->{code}) for (@{$Carts->{main}});
