To access your element, you could to the following :

$price = $arr[0]['lines']['line1']['price'];

Also if your first level "[0]" is useless you could use array_shift($arr);

Then you would access your elem like this :

$price = $arr['lines']['line1']['price'];

If you don't want to use the zero index you can also use array_shift

$theArray = array_shift($theArray);

This will allow you to access any array element and you don't have to use the first element "[0]" key like so:

$theArray['lines']['line1']['price']

If this is an accurate description of the structure: $arr[0]['lines']['line1']['price']

where 0 is the index of the first level.
