I'd imagine, at this point, you'd need to move into the realm of
associative arrays.

        $x = 'products';

        $issorttext[$x] = 150;
        $isnewsorttext[$x] = 350;
        $iscount[$x] = 50;
        $isnewcount[$x] = 20;

After this, you'd end up with four arrays of one key each ('products'),
referenced as such:

        echo $issorttext['products']; // echoes 150

Then do the same for the key 'offers' and you'd have the same four
arrays, but now each with two keys.

Hope this wasn't too confusing an explanation.   :)
